Hi,

With my brief experience in SPS, I have found that lighting, water flow, competition and food can cause RTN. I am assuming that you got the lighting and food down...so you may want to check the water flow.

The best way to check is to place a LPS coral where the SPS sat. If the LPS is waving its little tenticles...then there is enough current. If it is barely moving...then that's you problem.

Problem with these SPS is that they don't tell you right away when they are unhappy. It is usually something I did 5 to 6 days ago...and then it tells me.

Hope that helps.

- Victor.
