The test kit is a Nutrifin Master Test Kit.

When i started out in the hobby i used that same test kit... I then tryed out a ELOS Ca test kit to compare the diffrence; the Hagen kit said i was at 450ppm so i figured i was good... The ELOS tested @ 375ppm. IMO get a good set of test kits!!

I ordered the refractometer today. I guess I will be buying the test kits in the near future.

Does anyone know of an Elos or Salifert test "kit". Instead of buying individual tests? Or a small "starter kit"?

Thanks Delphinus and Kevin at Red Coral for their help and advise.
The problem is still there so I will put this out for more help.

Water Parameters:
Nitrate:0
Amm:0

CA 460
MG 1120
ALK 10

I think that covers it. From what I have read, CA is a bit high and MG is a bit low. Anybody have any suggestions on what to try next?

Thanks

BAHAHAHA I just finished watching Eddie Murphy's Delirious. Priceless

Anyone have any ideas? I just lost another head today............

Sorry I asked you those questions, which you answered, and then I never replied again! My bad.

I use a cheap plastic hydrometer. I just check it once every six months with a refractometer (I would do it more often, but I have yet to buy a refractometer), although it has never changed in the 8 years I've had it. ;) Did you have yours calibrated yet? Have you started to raise your specific gravity up?

Take a quick read through the Guides in my signature; particularly the Getting Started one, and the Parameters one. See if you can pinpoint anything on your own from there. Your calcium and magnesium are both a bit "off", but I can't see either being a real cause for concern.

I'm wondering more on your placement of the corals and what water flow you're placing them into??

On a side note...I used to lose Euphyllias all the time. I couldn't keep them alive. some would live for 12-24 hours, some would live a couple weeks. I never changed anything in my tank, but one day I added a Euphyllia that survived, and never looked back. Now I have a Euphyllia forest.

I have the refractometer now so my salinity is right on. I have put individual heads in different areas, same thing. My anemone is doing well, my clam is doing well. Fish are all fine. GSP,clove polyps all fine. I am stumped and frustrated.

I would check for flow also , a single head dying is weird. Is somthing eating it perhapes? I had a bicolor blenny eat my frog spawn.
