I don't have a ca reactor and keep my ca at about 420 and alk at about 4 meq/l .......your ca level should be higher than that if you are doing water changes weekly.....these changes should also be taking care of any trace elements and magnesium etc. Your lack of skimmate should be addressed you should be pulling junk out of that water ......I would check your adjustments on the skimmer.

Temp was within spec.. I used to run 78-80 degrees. I recently dropped it to 74-76. No change. The skimmer only ever runs all out full. Most anemones are ok with nitrates <10 I've read.
I dunno.. .still stumped.
