Any Elegance coral expert?

[cojo8888]

My corals are all thriving except elegance right now. It was expanding it self to huge size and was happy for about month (got him about 2 months ago) All parameters are same as before not sure why biggest of its' head is shrunk for past couple days. Now even the small one seem to getting shrink. They were very happy with par and flow they get.

I don't really spot feed my corals. But add red sea coral color A/B. Do I need to start spot feed with phytoplankton?

Another suspect is clownfish pair. I didnt really see them rubbing to elegance directly but most of the time they stay near of it. Which happened about month ago.

My water parameter with salifert/red sea test kit

Salinity- 1.025
Ph - 7.9 to 8.0 depends on window opening
Alk - stays around 8.5 to 9
Cal - 480 to 500 ish
Mag - 1450 ish
Temp - 78.8 to 79.8 or 80 if I turn off a/c
No3 - 1.5 to 2 or up+ depends on feeding.
Po4 - 0.01 or 2 or up+ depends on feeding

I have 2 elegance corals that I have had for a couple years now. I remember one shrunk and wouldnt expand for days, causing me to freak out and think it had the dreaded EC disease. I didnt do anything to it and it turned back to normal. Never figured out why.

My wife is the elegance coral queen. I'll ask her to respond later.

I think your tank may be a little to clean for the coral. do you know if your coral is from indo or aussie?
