sigh* frogspawn not doing well

[mro2you2]

My frogspawn seems closed all the time and the polyps seem deflated. When put in low flow nothing, high flow, nothing.

Please tell us more about your system.

With little to go on, I would only say make a partial water change, and use carbon filtration.

I see that you have a Biocube. There are many simple modifications that would greatly improve the maintenance of high water quality (if you haven't already done so). Dave is right though, we need more information...water parameters mostly.

For starters.............step up the water changes immed.!

Not to try to sound nasty, but this post tells us nothing at all. What size tank do you have? How much water do you change? Do you use RO/DI water to mix your salt? What brand of salt do you use? etc etc etc.

Saying your water is perfect also tells us nothing. What are the exact readings your getting? What may seem "perfect" to you may indicate a major problem to us. You also may not be testing for critical parameters.

There is obviously some sort of problem, or you would not be having problems with your frogspawn. Of course the problem could be an unhealthy coral to start with, but more likely there is something about your tank that it doesn't like. For example, you may behaving "chemical warfare" between two corals, and your frogspawn is loosing. You could have introduced something toxic to the system. Some LFSs run copper in there fish section to keep parasites down. If you add that water to your tank, even in small amounts, you can kill corals.
