Re: Losing all my lps corals, what's going wrong?

I'm thinking it could be metal contamination. The new pump I got had a cast iron impeller, and when I took it apart, it was badly rusted. I'm starting to think this might have started after I installed the new pump. I did a 20% water change, but this time I used buckets instead of the pump, and I've ...

Re: Losing all my lps corals, what's going wrong?

I'm stumped, that's why I'm reaching out for help here. Everything that can be tested and measured has remained the same - flow, temp, lighting, salinity, all constant.

Losing all my lps corals, what's going wrong?

I've got another display and a frag tank on the same system, but it's just the hammers that are giving me trouble. They're not opening as much day by day ...
