Recently moved this mini colony to my new frag system. The flow is significantly more than in my display, but the rest of the parameters are pretty close.
It's been showing pretty good polyp extension at night (taken during moonlight period):
But, during the day, I'm seeing this...
I just added sps coral to a tank that had no coral and 10x turnover at maybe 3000 gallons per hour. My fish have been in there for a year now. Moorish idol, Queen angel, and 5 tangs. I just put in 2 mp 40s that I plan on running around 100% to get the flow I need. The fish are not use to this...

3rd week with this Acro- not sure what these new bumps are I’ve not come across them before. Don’t. Appear to be bite marks. Is it new growth?
It’s been opening up and coloring up but this is new.
Other acro and birds nests don’t show any signs of this and parameters have been double checked today
ATTENTION STICKHEADS, PLEASE join the FUN SUNDAY February 6th from 10am-2pm CST (TEXAS TIME) for our GAME TIME FLASH SALE here on R2R!!!!

Hello, so this tank is almost a year old now and I can’t seem to keep softies happy after the 6 month mark. Im not sure what is wrong because sps is growing really well.
The zoas were closed and the mushrooms were shrinking. I decided to give around $100 worth of softies to a friend that just...
Due to Covid and a myriad of life issues, I haven't had a reef tank for the last 2~ years. I plan on going into 2022 strong by setting up a 200g SPS dominant reef tank taking what I've learned over the years, going slow, and doing it right.
The Specs
Tank: Waterbox Reef LX 270.6 (263g total...
Hi guys,
I have this Milli which was doing fine, randomly after several months I noticed it was doing so good. So I fragged it and placed it somewhere else in the tank. It started to bleach more then it was in its original spot. However the bleaching has stopped now and there are still polyp...
I guess you could consider this a showoff post. Just decided to share some vids considering that it appears that most reefers are understandably, unfamiliar with Caribbean hard corals, especially the "sps". Might share more if yall like.
Hello, I was wondering if anyone out there has come across this mast big that I have found terrorising my frag tank.
some people say black bug and some are say aefw.
Do you all drip acclimate your acros? Ive always dripped all of my corals but ive heard some say its unnecessary and just stresses them out more. Im starting to rethink dripping. But this new batch of acro (40 min drive) came with a 0.005 salinity difference. So my question is at what salinity...
Hello Reefers,

Introduction:
Greeting Reefers! My name is Leo, and I'm from New Mexico. I'm very humbled and honored to have my tank featured for R2R Reef of The Month. When I first started the hobby, I spend lots of time looking at all...
Just got these a few days ago, i got them in a cheap bundle and they looked healthy other than this thing on them, they both have different issues im worried about.
So there are what looks like bite marks on my birds nest? Im worried since these look like flatworm bites? Never gotten them on...
Tested 1 Acro for a month and it colored up and looked great. Tank is 10 months old. Shipment of 6 SPS came in yesterday and overnight my red dragon bleached or died? My 5 other SPS I ordered looking great. I’m about to sleep for work (graveyard) so I don’t have time to test my water parameters...
A bit over a month ago I got my first Acropora (booberry) frag and it was doing pretty well in my Nuvo 20 for the first three weeks. Though in the past several days, first noticed Oct 7th, this frag started showing spots of skeleton at the tips of the Corallites. The day before I do recall...
While it is no rainbow tenuis this acro sits in a high spot on my list. I've had it in one form or another for about 4 years now and its always done fun things for me. Depending on nutrients and lighting this acro can vary from multiple different shades of pink to an almost red shade. What does...
Large Pink Stylophora coral has slowly developed issue which I assume is a common one. The top branches are growing and stealing light from bottom branches, bottom line issue is the base (or trunk) of it now has almost no light. I have never fragged a acro or stylo coral before perhaps this is...
Hello, this tank is around 5 months old, went through the various algae blooms, one happened because i got sick and couldn’t take care of the tank (someone else fed the tank). Well at the same time my ato decided it didn’t wanna work anymore and my salinity shot up and killed 2 of my corals with...
