brown polyps

[stephen1_fergus]

I have a little problem with my brown polyps. Their blossoms are turning white and I can't figure out how to fix it. My candy cane coral is fine and so is my frogspawn. My nitrate, nitrite, ammonia, pH, and phosphates are in pretty good shape and I've messed around with the circulation a little bit. Does anyone have any idea what it could be?

how long have you had them?

do you have a pic?
typically changes in color are primarily due to lighting or water chemistery

I took a pic with my camera and when i try to upload it, it is too big. I don't know what I can do aboiut a pic unless you have any advice. If this helps the polys are close to the bottom of my 50-gallon reef tank and in their little flower pads most of them are turning and faint white. I'm going to do a water change tomorrow if that will help out.

If you're trying to put pics directly from RC, it won't work. Try making an account with photobucket and upload them that way.

By photobucket do you mean upload it to the reefcentral site?

get an account at photobucket.com (free) then link to the picture when you post.

or with your phot software reduce the pixels per inch to 72 and see if that helps, if using phot shop "save it for the web" that works also
