Hello fellow reefers,
This is my first post, thank you R2R for membership. I have been struggling with getting my zoas to open. They were good for a week or two then closed up. I dipped them with Seachem before placing into tank. I believe my water parameters to be pretty good. But not sure about my lighting and flow. My lighting is OCEAN REVIVE T247-B FULL SPECTRUM DIMMABLE LED REEF LIGHT. Which is super bright even at 1% so not sure if I’m burning them or what. I run them at 5% blue 4 hours, full spectrum white 4 hours, then blue 4 hours again. Would appreciate any suggestions and if I missed anything you would like to know please ask.
pH 8.2 ish
Salinity 1.025
Ca 420 Ppm
Alk 240 ppm
Nitrate <5 ppm
Nitrite <0.25 ppm
Ammonia 0 ppm
Phosphate <0.25 ppm (don’t have ultra low test kit)
Temp 79
Flow 10X
Thank You
