Hoping for some more eyes on this to help me nail down what's wrong with my green goddess birdsnest.
She was doing great for months after a rocky start in Nov where it lost over 90% of it's polyps after accidental exposure to RO water during the initial introduction to the tank. (noob move on...

So last night I changed the media in my GFO/Carbon reactor. I have run the reactor for 6 weeks or so. My phosphates were at .17. After adding new media last night, they plummeted to .04. Within hours, my 2 previously happy SPS pieces looked bleached. The monti at least now has its polyps...
Hi!

Temperature: 79.3 F
NO3: 13-12
pH: 8.2
PO4: 0.07
About 2 weeks ago I moved all of my corals from my 20 long to my new 50 gallon system. Parameters were the sam and I adjusted the lights to the same par value the corals were used to in the old system. I had noticed over the past week that my orange monticap has been losing tissue a little bit...
Tips on a lot of my acros have turned white and seem to be spreading down, some have started growing algae on the tips. Could use some ideas and insight.

This was my first coral and has grown from about 1.5 in to the size of a strong fist in the last 10 months. It has always been the happiest and most aggressively growing coral in my tank and in the last 2 weeks it's DYING!!! :'(

And here is what it...
Does anyone on here know if I will be able to grow a jack-o-lantern lepto on the same rock as my Mr. Freeze? I spoke to a vendor at a coral show locally that said some of them will grow side by side fibe and some will try to murder each other. Will these two be ok? P
Hi everyone,
I observed something like bleaching but I am not sure if it is really a bleaching so your opinions are precious. Any suggestions for what to do in this case will be preciated.
So, I have this frag for 2 months perhaps, for last 2 days i observed that it was loosingflesh partially...
All right so here's my story!!!
I recently purchased a PC Rainbow Acropora from @WWC and after leaving it in my 29 gallon for 24 hours I dipped it in Revive from 2 little fish and moved it to a recently established 10 gallon quarantine tank. I had used water from my old aquarium and some...
Hi fish people,
I got this wwc green birdsnest a few months ago and about a month ago it started bleaching. Maybe six weeks at this point. This is my first coral that's started doing that so I was slow to react. I've lowered the light intensity and the time the lights are on. It's still slowly...
I have been an aquarist of sorts for over 10 years now, but didn't dive into the salt side until just over a year ago. Like most people i started small with a bicube16 and probably didnt do enough research here before starting.
Long story short, I started with Coral Pro salt mix and never once...
Hello all, my friend bought me a birds nest acropora two days ago. It doesn’t look too healthy in my opinion so I am concerned my tank isn’t up to snuff, the rest my corals are really healthy and growing just this one isn’t (or maybe I am just overreacting)
My tank parameters are as follows...
Hey guys,
So my green Slimer is on a frag rack and I noticed that part of the body and first bit of the branch is bleaching or dead? I am not sure. Since this part of the Slimer was in the shadow do you think this was why?
Recently I had some pretty heavy temperature dips because of my own...

My tanks recovering from a bad time. I lost a lot of SPS to receding skin. My colony of red planet is 90% dead. Now that I’ve corrected the issue, the receding has stopped leaving 10% alive.
I had something similar to this happen before and the red planet quickly recovered and grew of the dead...
I have a red monti cap in the center of my tank that was doing really good for a while and now is taking a turn for the worst. Too much light maybe? It’s right under a hydra 26hd although it’s lower in the tank. It seems to bleeching out possibly in some areas although I’m not sure. Any...
