Hello everyone, I recently installed a Current USA Orbit Extreme 436 watt
T5 High Output Lighting System so that I could convert my Fish-Only to a Reef and start collecting some Corals. I have added Yellow Polyps which for over 2 weeks have not fully bloomed. I though it may be an issue with water quality and I check my parameters:
Temp: 82.5
Salinity: 1.025
PH: 0.0
Ammonia: 0.0
Nitrates: 0.0
Nitrates: 0.0
I thought that maybe the coral did not survive the transport from the Local Fish store and the
acclimation into the tank. So I purchased another coral which after 4 days is also acting the same way. They are currently located within the middle of the aquarium and being exposed to about 9 hours of 436
T5 lighting with
Actinics could this be to much? I have shortened the
photo period to 6 hours in hopes that this would help them. What else could I be doing wrong? I really want some color within my tank.
