10 years ago I would have laughed at myself for looking forward to being at home buying corals on a Saturday night.
I’m stuck working . 3p-11p . I’m gonna try to take peeks when I can. Both days. Sigh. Hospitals never sleep.

Probably the blasto, but the micromussa right after it is also pretty sweet

Ooooooooh. Looking to replace these guys. They grew out a few heads and then did the zoa divebomb and melted in like 2 days after having them for months

Some zoas just fade quickly when they decide to go bye bye... no rhyme or reason

I don’t know the name of it but this torch is crazy looking. I’m late to the party but I just started getting into torches.

That sucks!!!! Can you siphon any out?
I scooped out the ones that were floating, I believe/hope my tank is mature enough to process the rest without any issues. Maybe I’ll finally be able to get my nitrates above 1.

The worst part is I’m going out of state early tomorrow morning so I won’t even know how it did until Sunday night at the earliest.

I stupidly was trying to fill the cup without taking the feeder off of the mount, like everyone says not to do. I guess I learned a valuable lesson tonight.

Good luck! I’m sure it’ll all be good…the luxuries of a well established tank. If it makes you feel any better we once bought an automated feeder, mounted it, went to do something else and knocked it into the water instantly killing it. It was one of those times you just have to laugh so you don’t throw it across the room!

Thanks, I’m not that worried about it, just a little nervous because I won’t be there to do anything if ammonia does start to increase.

If your auto feeder was ruined you still could’ve thrown it across the room. Knowing my luck though I would’ve thrown it and broke something else.

@Gtinnel I found it!


Maybe...
I don’t think it is. The one that they posted on the thread seems a lot more orange than that one. It’s the bright orange that made it stand out to me. Unless it was just a difference between the two pictures. As we all know lighting and camera filters can completely change the way a coral looks in a picture.

@RiptideAquaculture what is the name of that beautiful orange torch that I copied your picture off.

It’s not I was sniffing around Riptide’s website. They have green ones only. That one is way too green tinted.Here’s a side by side comparison 1E783512-417F-4AAB-B171-D6094377214E.jpeg 254FD95B-719D-4A4C-89DB-FCD39CF00087.jpeg
