Odd coloration on pinima
- Thread starter thefishguy7
- Start date
Tested my water:
Nitrate- 25 ppm
Nitrite- 0
Ammonia- 0
pH- 6.0
So water quality is fine, but pH is low as I thought.
Here's the plan:
-Stop feeding garlic
-Up the waterchanges
-Add some type of buffer (crushed coral/shells)
-Move to a larger enclosure 1 week from now if I see no difference
Also, I have carbon in my filter: remove it?

Hmm yea...I would go with yu plan...yu can remove the carbon from yur filter in the mean time.
maybe yours' going to turn out like this one here.
If nothing wrong with water and food, why not grow it out?
Nothing wrong to be different, right?

Moved the pinima into a 20L today, let's see if he returns to normal coloration.
PH is not bad. Peacocks like a low Ph I mean of course 6.2 is ideal but crushed coral is going to put you in the 7.0 and the prefer 6.2 - 6.5.
don't touch your ph.. i had my old sp. venz in 5.3- 5.5 ph...... take some updated pics.. like i said most likely due to stress
