Troubleshooting my scoly

[DarkHive]

I'm getting worried about my scoly - the skeleton is starting to show.
My parameters are all good - 11.4 CA, 389 mg, and 1500 alkalinity. The only issue I can think of is my salinity, which is a bit high at 1.0028. I'm pretty sure it spiked when I bumped up my Mg levels a month ago to deal with some algae issues.
My setup is two 120s combined with a 60 gallon sump - one 120 is LPS and the other is SPS. All my other corals are thriving, so I'm not sure what's going on with this one.
I've been feeding my corals twice a week, and my water tests are all clean - no nitrites, nitrates, or ammonia.

I think I can help you out DarkHive. Lights are Ecotech radions. Have you considered your lighting schedule and intensity? I'd take a closer look at that, as well as your water changes. With your salinity that high, it's possible it's stressing your scoly.

Do you provide it with regular feedings?

I've been trying to feed it, actually gave it some shrimp pellets recently, but those shrimps just swarm it. I'm pretty sure it got some, though. Haven't really seen the tentacles out in a while. If I catch them out, I'll try feeding it a cube of mysis. What's weird to me is those pics you posted, taken at 11pm est, and still no tentacles.

I actually do feed the tank, twice a week with coral frenzy, prawn roe and Rotifers. The scoly does get sprayed with the mixture.

Your scoly's actually looking alright, no damage around the mouth and it's puffed up pretty well. Just keep those water parameters in check and make sure you're feeding it when the tentacles are out, that's key. You should start seeing some improvement within a week or so, just keep at it and give it some time.

What kind of lighting do Scolys require, are they low light tolerant or is there a specific range they thrive in?

What's the ideal feeding schedule for this guy, how often should I be targeting it

I run mine under kessel 150w, but they're positioned differently based on age. New scolys, 1 to 3 months old, I keep them 24" under the light, so low light. Once they're established, 1.5+ years, I move them up to about 12" under the light, more med light.

I'd recommend feeding your scoly mysis 2-3 times a week, when its tentacles are out. Keep the water parameters in check and ensure it's getting enough to eat, it's looking pretty good overall, just needs a bit more TLC.
