So I bought a sweet coral over the weekend (lobo with xenia attached to the same rock... I have since learned this isn't the best combo).
The lobo (& xenia) promptly shriveled up and died (they looked great for the first five hours). We're talking like 24 hours here. I got a reef test kit (shame on me for not having one already) and my phosphate is between 2 and 5. I know this is high. Could this be what killed my new stuff? I have some zoa and mushrooms and they're alive, but they could look better...
And what does everyone recommend to bring it down?
