My favourite patch of Zoas has been shrinking slowly over the last 3 months. Everything else seems to be thriving though but I want to rule out my trace elements. I do 10% weekly water changes every Friday so Wednesday would be a good day to test and see if I am depleting something before I do a water change.
I'll bring the low range Phosphate colorimeter. That might be informative.
