Coral coluration loss
I did a post a while back when I bough a piece of Green Acro and wtihin two week it had turned brown and still is was told if was a nutrient level too high, Nitrates and Phosphates are testing zero but I have a small brown algae on the back glass and a little bit of loose hair algae on one end easily pulls off the glass,
Dosing Ca, Alk and Mg daily occaisional iron and Iodine and Potassium.
have been reading in various forums that raising Nitrates to levels 1 to 5 with Potassium Nitrate helps with reducing coral browning and restoring natural colours has anybody else tried this with any success
