Hi I on monday i added my first corals to my previously fish only tank.They were a torch and a finger leather coral.
Since adding the torch it never extended and this morning when i woke up all the polyps had gone form the skeleton and were floating around the tank. The finger leather coral had started off well but it looks as if its skin is now ripping and some parts of the polyps have started to go black.
Therefore I tested my water again this morning
pH :8.0
Ammonia :between 0-0.25
Nitrate:0
Nitrite:0
Now the only thing that seems like it would kill the coral is the ammonia however my fish are all doing completely fine. The only other thing I can think off is maybe a lack of minerals but have no way to test this.
Any Help would be greatly appreciated because I have just ordered some ore corals online because I thought my torch and leather were healthy so realistically I need quite a quick fix.
