Hi guys, I've got a bit of an issue with my reef. So over the last 2 days my corals haven't been opening up, however its a bit odd. My GSP, Xenia, Mushrooms, Hammer, some acans, and fox coral, these corals aren't opening up at all, which scares me as they are pretty hardy corals. However my 2 monti caps, blasts, leather, macro, and chalice are doing fine, in fact the chalice continues to grow a lot. So only around half of the corals are affected. Also around 2 days ago my skimmer failed on me. Tank info: 90 g- only 3 fish, melanurus wrasse, leopard wrasse, and yellow tang. I got my water tested, nitrates were higher than normal and pH was low. I do not understand why the xenia would not open with these conditions as they don't mind nitrates. pH was low, even though I am dose Kalk, 2 teaspoons, Alk is around 11. I also add vinegar to my ATO. I just added a fresh batch of carbon, to remove any toxins that could be a problem. I also did a 10g water change just to help out a little bit. Sorry i wrote so much, I had to mention everything that could be a factor.
Any help would be appreciated
