my pineapple brain isn't looking happy, but it's been that way for a few weeks now. The flesh is receding and the skeleton is showing around the edges. Not sure what that's all about either...My toadstools and Finger look very happy too. I'm very sure it's way high, I've done the test 4 times and each time it's the same.

One question you mentioned 2 of the small syringes. Was that the long skinny one? Think after that much MG it would start to precipitate out.

When corals start to recede, its not a good sign. Something is killing it slowly. Without knowing too much about your system, I would have to say that you have overdosed on something or not enough. Some of my corals started to recede when I OD on Alk. I think that you are either not testing all of the paras or your not testing it correctly. I wish I could be more of a help to you Linda, but I feel like my hands are tied.
