shrivley frogspawn

[lilduud]

so one of my two frogspawn is shrivled up and has been for a day or two... inspite of the strange fact that my clown has basically stopped hosting it.. what could this be? my 3 main params were all at zero a day ago but im running full tests now... will post when finished..
alllll of my other corals have great extension and my sps is allllll growing new branches and encrusting nicely... thanks in advance for any help!

Has your flow changed at all or your lighting?

 

[lilduud]

flow hasnt changed... i push my powerhead into two different positions but i havnt done that in a few days anyway and the forgspawn gets low to medium flow all the time... and my lighting is more than enough i have a 150 watt metal halide with 28 watts of actinic t5 ho the bulbs are about a month old. and they have all been acclimated to the strong lights...

PARAMETERS ARE AS FOLLOWS:
Ammonia: 0
Nitrites: 0
Nitrates: 0
Alkalinity: 9
Calcium: 460-500 ppm [almost too high to read]

Phosphate?

 

[lilduud]

dont have a test for it but ive tested my source water before and its phosphate free... and i havent changed feeding at all lately... but there is a bit of new algae comin on pretty strong so maybe ill have that checked again

Is it possible that a snail or something else bumped into it? I know my Frogspawn will shrivel up for a day or so if it gets hurt. I would think it is this since it is only one head and not all of them acting this way.

did you do a water change b4 it shrivled up? mines closed for a few weeks b4 when i did't heat the fresh water to tank temp b4 the change.

no water change before and its possible that a snail bumped into it.... it seems to be opening back up and today i isolated my clownfish in a pico hehehe fucker deserves is... i hate that fish. anyway we will see how the tank does now that hes gone
