It's taking it's sweet time getting wetted in. It ain't dirty enough yet!
Hey man I ramped that kessil up again, and I've been feeding my corals, dosing, etc. I dont know what else to do...Un huh
I havent inspected them outside the tank but I dont think I have a disease or anything...I feel like the Phosphates and Nitrates being 0 is hurting them...Something is starving them out or they have disease. Are your parameters the same? Have you inspected the coral outside the tank?
I get scared doing stuff like that lol. I started feeding heavy like a half cube to a whole cube of brine shrimp every night. If that doesn't help then should I dose NO3?You can try dosing NO3. There's a thread here on dosing Potassium nitrate sold as spectracide stump remover. That's what i would do.

So this is honestly the easiest way to go?If you feel it is the problem. Then it is worth doing. You can try and feed more, but feeding more takes time, it also doesn't exactly equal NO3. Where as adding an elemental form of nitrate is easily measurable and controllable. I know, it is a lot to swallow, going to the store, buying stump remover, mixing it with water and then dumping some of it in your reef tank. It goes against everything, everyone has ever told you.
If you do your research you will actually see that Spectracide stump remover is a very pure form of KNO3. The added potassium is such a minute quanitity that it's negligiable.
(Potassium is also needed in the reef aquarium)
You can also dose phosphates, but there isn't a thread for that.
It works. There's a thread on another site that explains the entire procedure, read the entire thing if you find it. If not, I'll DM the link to you.
You'll need a mortar and pestle if available. If not, you can use the back of a spoon to crush the granules into a fine powder. I think one teaspoon makes 16 ounces, but I'm probably incorrect and need to go re read.
Hey man so I ramped up the kessil only twice, I've been dosing what needs to be dosed, and increased feeding. Im having algae blooms like crazy...I scrub the glass and within a few hours its covered again....what's going on now? Corals are still upset a bit as wellSo much reading, the words are falling out of my nose. [emoji85][emoji87][emoji86]
It was a 7 dkh but I've dosed to bring it upPersonally I feel your alk is low
