I have 6 colonies of zoos each one was brought at a different time and some from same place some not. Every colony is fine for about a week and then they decline slowly. All water parameters excellent.
Tank Size: 54 gallons
spg: 1.025
temp: 78f
amonia: 0ppm
nitrite: 0
nitrate near: 0 5-10 max
calcium: 360 maybe a little low
phosphate: 0
dkh: 9
good water movement
lighting: 250w mh 14k 8 hours daily
two 65w actinics 3 hours daily after halide turns off
dose: 1-2 drops lugols weekly
also I've tested for copper 0ppm
other corals: toadstool, wells open brain, tounge, hammer, sun coral, sea fan, xenia and 2 sps. lps and sps corals doing fine, xenia is also shrinking. The only Zoanthid thats doing well seems to be the yellow polyps.
fish: 2 damsels, watchman gobby and alge blenny.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Chris
