Got a new yellow acro last week and hasn't really extended much at all. It's sliming a bit and will open a little at night but that's it.

All water perams are in order.

Temp 80.5
SG 1.025
PH 8.4
CA 430
Alk 3.0 meq/L
NO2,NH3 & PO4 all undetectable

• I am running 4 MJ 1200 on a wavemaker/2 Seio 660/mag 9.5 return & an AC 500 for flow.

• I feed the tank 2 or 3 times per week with frozen cyclop-eeze

• Only additives I use is ESV 2 part (20ml/day)

• The closest thing to it is a tree coral which is 7'' away.

I am thinking it might be my new MH (2x250w 10k). I am currently acclimating and am at about a 5 hour photo period (I was at 10 hours with PC last week)

The Acro was added AFTER I got the new halides but I think my LFS runs 6700k bulbs which are probably WAAAY overdue for being changed.

Everything else is doing well (mostly LPS) and my most recent addition was a 5'' Crocea clam which was added on Friday

I do 15% water changes with RO/DI weekly as well as clean all equipment

Any thoughts?

Perhaps your best bet is to lower it in the tank as far down as possible and let it be to see if it responds better. If your suspect the lighting, this is the best course of action.
