how was the run?
Oh, proverbial run. I got in my car to go pick up lunch real quick. :face-with-tears-of-joy: But it was very fruitful. Brisket, pulled pork BBQ, some potato salad, and a 6 pack of lager later, and I'm ready for football and the live sale!

Just went to check the tank before the sale started and I think my blasto has bailed out. So upsetting it seemed perfectly happy yesterday and ate 2 days ago!
I did increase flow a few days back but it was never even retracted except overnight when they all seem to close up. Not it's either sucked right back into the skeleton or completely gone. :(

If you need us to hold the order for a few more days until you are confident that your tank is ready just let us know! We are happy to hold the order another day or two if need be.
Thanks! Will keep you up to date :)

Just clarifying the $4.99 corals count towards the $5 coral limit. Not that I think I will be lucky enough to grab too many that will suit my tank, thought better to check!
yes maam

Do you also sell on ebay? I got 4 extra corals added to my order from the last auction shipping module that way.
Currently we are not doing ebay but we are seriously considering bringing our auctions back!

This was a few days ago. under mostly blues.

This is this morning. under whites.

I can still see what seems to be the edge of it and the green of the mouth. But it also seems unbelievably thin and skeleton showing.

Sorry for blurry photos I need to figure out how to better take iPhone pics

Unfortunately the big head is gone but the little head on the bottom still has tissue. In the previous pic it looks a little bleachy, I assume from the lack of nitrates and phosphates in your tank. Tuck it in the shade and see if it recovers, blastos are collected in muddy waters so they like a little dirtier water. They also dont like alot of light.

Thanks, the big head was never on this frag that I received, only the smaller one at the bottom. I will put it down somewhere darker and see if that helps.
I didn't think my lights were that bright so maybe it could be the flow as well bothering it I guess.
Or that I just need to dirty my tank up a bit :p
