Well I feel like giving up on SPS. They are just so variable :|
I have a blue tenius which bleached overnight (many of you know about that story) but now that I have it at the middle of my tank, it seems like its tissues are reconstructing and growing brown.
I acclimated the blue gomezi to my light (I even wonder whether I should have acclimated it in the first place) and put it high up in the tank since I heard they love LOOOOOOOOOOOTS of light. Guess what! It BLEACHED!!!!
On the same level, I have pink milli which is going great with awesome polyp extension and the color is good too. Alongside, I have a purple bonsai and tri color acro on the same level and they are browning out!!! Like how would I know which is strong and which is low light for them :O Its freaking irritating!
I got a monti cap almost at the bottom and its growing even faster than my softies! Got orange and yellow digitatas at the middle which are doing great too along with purple and green birdnests.
So in summary, I had acros and a milli in the same level, some of them browning out, one bleached and the milli doing great.
My water parameters are not my concern since I keep them at check but still here are the values:
SG: 35ppt
Ammonia: 0ppm
Nitrite: 0ppm
Nitrate: 0ppm (or atleast undetectable by API)
Calcium: 440ppm
Magnesium: 1325 (I believe)
Phosphate: I believe its close to 0 (with seachem) but really, that test makes me feel like I am colorblind :| I don't have any algae growing anywhere other than coraline.
Any idea SPS gurus?
I am really frustrated with this matter!
