How long ago did you put these corals in? Most people put there corals on the bottom of the tank for a week or two to let them get used to the light. Then move them around to see where they do best in there tanks. To me it sounds like that Verdi is stressing. How strong are your lights? How new of a tank? I let my tank run 6 months with a few fish befor adding corals. But then again I'm having some issues w/ my corals lol.
my lighting is less than what my lfs had so it is now under 250 watt 14k and was under a 400 watt 14 or 20k, aquarium water is typically ok for corals long before it is suitable for fish or at least in my experience it is. ive always had a green thumb for sps and a tougher time keeping zoos and softies happy. i just think its wierd that of the 4 new acros this one has a problem
