Your torch corals look super healthy and vibrant! Sometimes frogspawn can get picky with flow or lighting changes so maybe try adjusting those a bit to see if they perk back up.

Turn them upside down and check for pests where the flesh meets the skeleton.

I made a change to the lights 2 times and I’m trying to give it time to adjust before touching it again

Trent · Answer

Ah, makes sense.

owen · Answer

I’ve been running my nitrates 5-10 for the longest. I’m suspecting it might be a light issue . I recently had a power outage and I had to redo my light schedule and it’s been years since I touched them and do not remember the setting. 
Right now I’m only using 50 % intensity with 2 hydra 32’s

owen · Answer

That is reef roids I just did a broadcast feeding

Trent · Answer

IMO the Cal is high. I think 465 is max for SPS, less for LPS but still safe at 465. Nitrates 5-15ppm aren't bad. It's actually beneficial for corals.

What's floating around in the water in the video. White specks everywhere. Any chance you did a water change recently?

Gabriel · Answer

Sometimes frags take a bit to adjust when they’re on the sandbed rather than rock. Your alk and cal look solid but that nitrate is a bit high for LPS, might stress them out. Maybe try lowering nitrates and see if they bounce back!
