Mornin.

Anyone have issues with PayPal and your bank card? Meaning that for the past three months for some reason payments supposed to go through my bank card via PayPal, aren’t. I’ve checked with PayPal and it looks right. It’s frustrating cause I’ve had the same PayPal since 2009 :( idk if it’s on PayPal’s end or the banks end or if contacting either will fix it.
Not me. I use PayPal as frequently as possible. Keeps my information slightly more protected.

My wife asking the hard hitting questions
I totally think they do because when either my 6-line or my sailfin went on a rampage, one of my anthias made the jump from the DT to the nem tank. Pretty good aim; doubtful a coincidence. It was the male. He must have known that was his only chance for survival... then I put him back...

Learning to scuba that was the weirdest part can't breathe through your nose.

Can you insulate the tank some how with a heat proof barrier? Like cinder blocks?

I bought a digitata last Friday. Unfortunately I had it too high. All the areas the light hit bleached within two days. I have the coral on the bottom now. The bottom third of the coral and an area under one of the branches are alive and the polyps are opening now.

There’s a brown “algae” (diatoms?) growing on the exposed skeleton now. Should I cut the exposed skeleton off so it doesn’t spread to the live tissue? Should I just leave the skeleton alone and just clean it every now and again? I thought I saw some of the “algae” trying to grow on the live tissue as well but now I’m not so sure. If it is/does what is the best way to deal with it?

Today is the first time since the bleaching that almost all the polyps on the living tissue have opened up. Of course I want the digi to thrive and live a very long life. I’ve been dropping my phosphates (which were too high for my Hanna phosphorus checker ULR) to measure. I’m dropping them slowly but steadily. My nitrates are almost zero. Here are a few images of the digi over the last couple of days. Thank you for your help.
