Hello reefers,
It’s been around 8 months since established my 50cm cube tank. Since the beginning, I’ve been observing the slow growth of my corals. Last month, my clove polyps started to shrink and get smaller and lose their vibrant color. I’m trying to understand why but I have no clue. I’m using AI prime HD lighting and a Jebao ECP 50M gyre-type wave maker. Lighting is on for 8 hours in full-set. For the comparison, I added the GSP. The tentacles have stayed small since the beginning. There is no grass-like formation. I suspect lightning and current power in the tank due to the wave maker. Here is my water specifications:
Ca: 420
Mg: 1410
Nitrate: ~5
Phosphate: Barely detectable
Salinity: 1.026
I’m giving Red Sea AB+ every day.
