What is wrong with my Frogspawn!?

What the heck is going on with my frogspawn? It is receding in an area, and deflated. A second branch is starting to do the same, but the other 2 branches still look great!

Water
Alk - 10.9
Calcium - 380
Ammonia - 0
Nitrite - 0
Nitrate - 3
Phophate - 0
Iodide - .4 (is this good? should it be higher?)
Temp 80 F
Salinity is usually 1.026 but my float valve got stuck open for a bit and it went to 1.024.

I did a water change and raised the salinity to 1.025...

Can anyone help me out here??

Mine does that when ever something disturbes it but after a while it comes back to full bloom I dont think you should worry to much about it. Of course Im also fairly new to this so get someone elses opponion also. Oh yeah mine normally does that when i turn my lights off too.

 

Thanks....does your's expose the skeleton as well? I don't think it is just disturbed...it has been 2 days, and is looking worse.....

I hope it is just temperamental..but I doubt it....

 

I would say exposed Skeleton is not a good sign. Could it be because it's facing the other direction as the others. What I mean is is there flow or less flow or light or less light in the other branches.

You could Frag just those to branches then move them to a few different spots. I have seen things recover from Skeleton exposure but you have to make sure Algae and colaline dosen't get a hold first

Thanks J...

The sick ones are getting more light, but less flow...

I have it on very low flow, just enough to lift the tentacles a little bit. Is that how you have yours?

 

What additives, if any do you use? I use B-ionic, which is supposed to have strontium and such in it....is that enough?

 

You know. I used to be MR. Seachem and was on a millitary supliment regiment. But you know it just didn't seem to do it for me. I have a CA reactor and do water changes when I can (no longer than 1 month) The CA Reactor Is driving me nuts I can;t seem to get it dialed it



Try cutting them appart and placeing them in lower light lower flow areas

Will that eat chopped up shrimp like a hammer? [smiley=worried.gif]

I NEED to feed my hammer tomorrow. It looks just a little better than yours Sue.

Since you asked, iodide should be at .6.

 

Thanks guys! I do feed it...I will raise the Iodine, plus I put in some carbon ...we'll see.
