Lighthouse Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 I'd like to add in here too. I'm new and my first coral was a 2-head hammer. It did extremely well until 2 weeks ago, it started to wither. I'm baffled. I thought it was my nitrates that were too high. I went on a nitrate extermination drive with NoPox and Orca Lab Nitraguard. All the other corals are doing well still, except for the poor hammer. I do expect casualties, but I want to understand what I did wrong. My parameters were always within normal sea-water levels. My Nitrates are now 5 ppm and undetectable Phosphates. I googled "Zero Phosphates Hammer Dying" and got a couple of hits that the zero phosphates are the issue. Any idea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I start SPS so i dose nopox and my hammer start receded and leave the skeleton. Any idea?Is it pospate too low? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stories are too similar, I'm now more convinced it's the NoPox and the low / undetectable phosphate levels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Tan Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 I think you need to feed them regularly at least once a week and maintain a decent level of phosphate and nitrate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
