Does anyone have a PAR meter that they can come over and test my par? Im having an issue keeping some corals. I have had 3 types of Birdsnest slowly just bleach to white from the bottom up over a span of one month from initial entree into the tank. And they are on the sand on a plug
I have AI LEDs and I stupidly originally had worked them up to W100 B85 N85. That killed all my acans, but nothing else was effected (didnt have sps then). About a month ago I dropped it to W50 B55 N55 and still am having issues. Light cycle: 3pm-5pm 55B 55N / 5pm-9pm 50W 55B 55N / 9pm-11pm 55B 55N / 11pm - 3pm 1B 1N
I bought a meteor shower, war coral and they were bleached and dead withing 24 hours. Yet I have encrusting montis and caps at the top of the tank and their color is amazing.
Water params are all within range. I keep my alk at 8.5 - 9.
Let me know if you have a PAR meter or any other advice. There is beer/wine/liquor/money in it for you!
