hi to all
I bought a elegance coral 2 month ago and it opened completly in first week.
I tested the water and found that ph-kh-ca-mg were low and I was starting to dosing kalk but I faced to some problem and my ph-kh-ca changed day to day and during this process my elegance wasnt open completly. after I succeed to stabilize my ph-kh-mg-ca in 10 days ago my elegance dosen't open completly yet.
also in 1 month ago it fell on my long tentacle anemone for some hours after i picked it up and place it on his place for 4 days elegance and anemone not opened and after that anemone open completly but elegance like past days not opened completly.
now my elegance is completly close in night and from morning to noon is half open and on 13 oclock that i turn on my 14k light it extend a bit ,on 15 after turning on the 20k its extend more ,on 19 that i turn off 20k it start to close and after 21 that i turn off 14k it not change untill the room lamp turn off and then close completely.
he eat shrimp meat aggressively that i feed him ,In the time that it has more size I see bright green on it and its tentacles is very short and puffy.
I place it on live rock far away any other coral in low flow rate and moderate light.
water parameter:s.g:1.025_ph:8.1-8.2_kh:11_no3:5_po4:0_mg:130_ca:430_temp:25c
5 days ago I checked s.g and it was 1.020 and I raise it to 1.025.
please help me what shuold I do. Is it posible the reason of problem are fast changing in water parameters and my coral shocked ?
