    From another forum:AAE55D55-A696-47B1-B9A9-ED3F13864823.jpeg.e944a60c12ea116e72cf6270339ed4ce.jpeg

    Found this quite similar to my problems. As my other parameters looks good, leds looked like the likely culprit. Now have to lower my light intensity and acclimatized my tank’s acros all over again.

     

    This was what happened to me too. Started feeding more which led to high PO4 but still had the same burnt tips. The mistake I had was not testing for NO3 as my NO3 was bottoming out. Dosing NO3 did help and my SPS are doing better now.

    Would also recommend to stop all forms of dosing (bacteria/carbon/amino acids) and just rely on good old water changes for the next 2 months.

    Since I’m using one 64HD hydra, I’ll have to adjust it such that sufficient light can reach both corners of the tank. But at the same time don’t wanna have too much light spillage. Will only know once my setup is complete.

    I have my lights about 20cm above the water surface. You will need two light sets to get an even spread. If you plan to keep just soft corals and LPS, I think one hydra would be sufficient.

    I have measure the thickness and to my horror it is indeed 5mm, although marketed as 8mm crystal glass. Have returned to the shop already, and managed to source for another 8mm. Thanks for the heads up!

    No problem. It would be disasterous had you used that tank. I got mine customed made for the same price though, 4 sides crystal glass with predrilled holes.

    Like what Awiee shared, I'm also facing flow issues due to the low height. My sps get battered midway up and its hard to find the right balance of good flow over dead spots. Im also going with the 2 rock structures concept.
