I have a couple of sps that have had color fade away. They have a lot of polyp extension and are showing signs of growth.
Here some quick info:
Cal 480-500
alk ~11
mag 1400-1500
pH 7.7-7.9
temp 79-82
Light: actinics(200w) 10hrs .......MH(500w) 8hrs
Changed bulbs from 10K to 14K
Macro/micro algae and sponges are growing and plentiful so I'm sure nitrate and phosphate are near zero if tested (cant confirm)
What do you think? What can i do to get some color back?
