    Salinity is abit on the low side while your nitrates is rather high considering your bioload seems light. I'd suggest a 10% WC to progressively adjust the levels

    Im not sure if the salinity is accurate..since using a hydrometer..but i hv done a 10% water change..how frequent do you advise a water change ?

    So by having an accumulation of uneaten food causes nitrate spike too? smtimes i tend to overfeed..maybe tt could be the cause. I tried shifting my gonio to a higher light source area too bt it still wont open..can i just do a water change without having to test the nitrate?

    Hi all, i just placed my mushroom corals at the top of the live rock closer to the light source and it opened bigger but the ends are turned upwards..is it too much light? a4184f8110335c40ed12792166c4c7b1.jpg
