    How screwed is my Montipora?

    Bought this Montipora (galaxea??) this Saturday, acclimated, dipped and placed it high in my tank. After a day it started getting some white so I moved it at the bottom to see if lighting was the issue but since then it’s only gotten whiter and now only has strings of its algae attached to it...

    Coral frags bleached in just one day?

    I just got some corals in the mail from topshelfaquatics. They sent in a sheet saying their flow and lighting preferences too. Both of the corals require medium to high lighting. Anyways, I got a Christmas mirabilis and a birds nest coral, and they seem to have bleached in just 1 day from being...

    In the beginning: My husband and I went to buy a scully and saw this sad trachyphyllia and asked what was wrong and why it looked so horrible and bleached. The shop worker said "Oh the lights are to bright in this tank for it. We are basically killing it." When looking at the whole tank my...

    Rock Flower Anemone REAPPEARS after MONTHS!!

    So I had a tiny rock flower anemone, and it did well in my 2 to 3 month old tank, and it grew quickly and found a spot. I started adjusting the flow in the tank to better help the other corals needs, and it moved a bit, but then started moving a lot, and then it sort of disappeared into the rock...

    EMERGENCY Chance of survial? Acropora bleached or dead

    Hi everyone Had a huge temp increase during the first heat wave. Temp went from 78 to 84.5 in a day or 2. I have fans now at least! Question is, what are the chances of recovery on these guys? They still have some polyp extension, but I'm not sure if STN or just bleaching.

    “Bleach”. Am I missing something?

    Bleaching rock? I went to Lowe’s picked up closest thing I thought to being basic bleach EXCEPT it was splashless. Bleach used to be basic and contain 8% Sodium Hypochlorite. Now it’s been watered down in some cases to 3 percent and has all this “extra” stuff in it. Scents, thickening...
