Hello everyone,
This is my first post and I was hoping someone could recommend some zeovit products to help boost polyp extension and overall coral health.
I have a 730lt acropora dominant tank which was running well for the last 18 months but lately I have no polyp extension at all, although I am still getting growth. I am DIY balling with Fauna Marin trace elements and 10% weekly water change. I run a caulerpa refugium on 24/7 light cycle and I dose iodine and strontium.
I suspect my acropora are starving so I have added fish, increased feeding and switched off my skimmer for now. My parameters are solid, tested weekly and my levels are:
Kh 7.9
Calcium 460
Magnesium 1380
Potassium 370
Strontium 5
Iodine 0.06
Bromine 65
NO3 & PO4 undetectable by home test and ICP
No contaminants detected in ICP.
I have always had low NO3 so I tried dosing KNO3 but suffered from red slime algae as a result so stopped.
Any advice would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Al
