Ahh..I assumed a branch was white/dead

Agree that cutting will work too!

Here’s a pic. I may just see if it clears itself out. Not sure I want to chance with a dip

Anyone using kessilbwith dongle and linking the lights together. I'm trying tovadd another kessil, but group only has the existing lights and doesn't recognize the new one. The new ones turn on fine, I just can get it on the group to access the other colors

Fwiw I would at least cut it. That algae is gonna agitate the polyps next to it… if they bail or die, that could give the algae a stronger hold.

People report success, others don't. The biggest issue is finding root cause.

I'm pretty sure this frag tank was float glass, but it was used. I used Amazon braided nylon and PVC.

Whats really crazy is my buddy a few miles away did ATI. Had 6ug tin after DI and in tank. We had a massive watermain break, maybe it's the solder/welding from that. I have no idea at this point, tin shouldn't be in tap. He runs his tank alot different than mine, dosing/feeding/etc. Almost no commonality.

I'm watching some pieces melt, TSA day dream went up, a 2 year dormant jf fox flame, dippin dots looks like absolute crap. Bugs bunny. I'm just waiting for the first big colony at this point. In the midst of a legit crash right now.

Checked all magnets, do have some rusty screws on fuge light, most likely culprit right now. Vacuumed sump, checked for rogue metal or missing screws above the tank. Could be jebao wave maker in sump, frag tank, or jebao return pump those are all new equipment. Checked my utility pump for water transfer, in mostly good shape and doesn't sit in water. My nitrate is industrial grade but marketed 99%, I can't find anything indicating tin as a potential contaminants in sodium nitratem

Frag tank addition has been a total epic disaster. Hoping to hit water changes hard and pray its enough to salvage, worst part is I won't know for 2 weeks how much more is going to die, in addition to all the swings resulting from drastic measures. Rough.

Ouch I feel you. It's water main flushing time for the next month. No ro use during this time. Water made for 2 months just in case.

How do you frag? Do you have one of those official coral band saws?

 

[Zero_Cool]

Question for all you brainiacs (you'll see what I did there). I have what appear to be the 2 growth patterns of Trachyphyllia radiata- the flat and the cone shapes. Placement for the flat shape is easy. For those with the cone shape, where/how do you have it placed?
- sticking straight up
- partially buried in the sand
- fully buried in the sand

Images for reference (and because I like to post pics of the SBB Purple Monster).

Cone shape (after a midday snack)

I had to do this with bone cutters from the frag disk, after that i used a razor blade. I cut two frags and both are doing great But as you can see it gets really stressed out for about a week. After that it colors back up

Basically the black market under the table b0ob job method.

Have any pics? I'm a sucker for mushrooms

It's hard to get a good pic of the blue ones where they are

Some new pics FTS and the newbies

 

[RichWise73]

Now I have. Similar suggestions as the more recent threads. I pulled the fuge light. Hinges aren't in bad shape at all, may throw some jelly on em but they only have oxidation stains at best. No pitting nor flaking.

It's unique to the new tank addition IMO, im leaning towards fuge light or vinyl lines still.

I hope you get it figured out.

Check out some heat from last sale. Anyone wanna take some guesses?

 

[andrewj1212]

some potential on the far right, @Baby_Shark my guess at your SBB classified project may be one of those two

 

[andrewj1212]

The bumble bee in the bottom left from December’s sale is scary yellow/bright. I need more
