Soft coral are normaly very hardy. The only things I can think of that might cause a quick death for softies would be copper present in your water in some form. Many fish medications contain copper. If copper isnt present it can also be caused by high temperture. Temperatures above 85-86 degrees can quickly kill many types of coral.

Bye the way your aquarium is nice and beautiful.

Regarding White spot on fish…what I know it’s coming from temperature and also when the fish will scare. Is that right??!!

My aquarium temperature is 25. 26. 27. Digress. I kept schemers and UB light and heating temperature also chiller.

I need your experience and guiding

Many thanks.

My new 38gal w/21lbs LR has been set up a week and the perams are staying the same: Nitrites0, Nitrates 0, Ammonia 0, 1.023, 79 degrees. Is this normal or should I have patience that it will spike?
