I have 2 corals that have been in my tank 1 week and do not look good. Everything else looks fine corals, inverts, fish, etc and all levels are fine.
First is a SPS frag that in the last 2 days has been developing the white spot you see towards the bottom.
Second is a ricordia mushroom cluster i got from this site last week. It had 2 mushrooms on it. Yesterday 1 looked droopy and is gone today. Today the 2nd doesnt look so hot.
Other items in the tank that look fine are, various mushrooms, various zoos, large toadstool leather, 2 lps trumpet polyps, xenia, anthelia, encrusting gorgonia, brown finger leather.
What should I Do? Can I save them? Maybe they need to be moved higher for more light??

Just ran some tests on my water. A0, nitrite 0, nitrate 1-2, salinity 1.023-1.024,temp 79-80, ph 8.4-8.5
The only thing that has changed is the PH it used to alwasy be 8.3 but i started dosing 15mg each b-ionics every night this past weekend. I also just dosed it within 30min of running the test so it may be a false high.

That is most likely why the ph is high. How long has your tank benn set up?

I moved them to higher light, they were already pretty close to the top though. Morning PH is back at 8.3 so it must have been just becuase i dosed close to the last test
