I have a hammer coral that I received from a fellow reefer.
Hammer was under PC lighting when I first got it. Was 4 heads then split to 8 in our 26 Gal. It was in our 26gal for about 4 months and very healthy. We then moved it to our 120 with AI SOL LED's when we upgraded. For 2 months it was just fine and some heads split again, now have 13 heads. Ever since it split in the 120 it has gone down hill. Most heads have fully receeded and the ones that are open are not even close to fully open.
Water parameters are very stable and have been. We feed sun polyps 3 times per week and all corals with "Reef Chili" once a week. The hammers are placed on the very bottom of the tank and are not under direct light. They are also away from any other corals that could be bugging them.
Just a little dissappointed with their health lately. Our 120 was set up with all intentions of being an SPS dominant tank but I still would like to keep LPS as well.
Any insight is appreciated. - Thank you.
I can post a pic later if needed.
