I'm having some bad luck with my SPS frags. hoping someone can shed some light on how to fix this problem.
Tank is a 90g, about 120 lbs of live rock, been setup since Jan. 2011 45 gallon fuge and 50 gallon sump.
Nitrates 5-10 ppm
Phosphates 0
Cal 480
Alk 7
Mag 1800
400 Ml of Vertex biopellets
Vertex 180 skimmer
Water is run through a 6 stage RODI/Chloramine system
And I have a filter sock that gets replaced every 3 days in the sump.
Lastly, lighting is through a Maxspect 160 LED.
I've been reading up on this, and what I came up with is that it's lacking nutrients. I'm thinking of removing the filter sock and hope that it helps replenish some missing nutrients in the tank...
Any advice would greatly be appreciated
