Hi all, I’ve been battling phosphates/GHA for almost 6 months… currently reading 0.11pm now (was up to 0.61ppm in January). Nitrates 15PPM. Calc/Mg/Alk fall into normal ranges (I can test later if exact numbers needed) / pH is 8.0.
Over the past couple months my torch has lost its tentacle length and doesn’t open like it used too (uploaded video of current status, and attached photo of a few months back). I’m not sure if it’s due to flow, lighting, or what. Other corals are happy and my acans, trumpet, bubble, zoas, cyphastrea are all growing heads and mouths.
My lighting is 2 USA Orbit Current marine lights.
I have 2 hygger powerheads
Tank is a 40g Breeder, kept between 77-78F

Any thought on the issue and how I can help bring this torch back to life? I’ve had it for 11 months. Can it be saved? It’s in rough shape.
Thanks in advance for any advice or thoughts.
