    loss of color after RB treatment? normal?

    yeah i figured also talked to BR and they said that some corals lose a bit of color but also something to take into effect is the water is much clearer due to using LOTS of carbon right after the treatment....so more intense light than some corals are used to so little bit of whitening..hope it...

    loss of color after RB treatment? normal?

    is it normal for some corals to lose a bit of color after RB treatment i did it about 3 days ago and now some of the corals are a bit more white...and they where not that way before....im sure its a normal thing due to it stressing them a bit but if it wasnt normal i will be a bit more concerned...

    Calcium and Magnesium, how low is TOO low?

    most salts you have to supplement something i know i use IO and it seems to run low on mag/calc. has pretty high alk dont know if thats normal for IO but never need to supplement that.
