I installed 3X250W metal halides on wed...
As of today my corals are bleaching and my frogspawn has skin peeling off the shaft...not all the coral is reacting this way, just SPS and that one LPS...Everything else looks happy IE Zoas and LPS...
I switched from VHO...
I am really kind of worried, because the coral that is bleaching isn't cheap...
Has anyone had a similar issue?
Day1: ran VHO 11hrs and Metal halides 3hrs
Day2: Vho 11hrs + 4hrs MH
Day3: Vho 11hrs + 3hrs MH
Day4 (today): just running VHO, kuz I don't know what to do...
My friend Davy said to run the MH for 1hr a day for a week...Any ideas....please help...I don't mind a bit of bleaching, but I don't want to nuke the coral...Is this normal?
Thanks,
Jeff
