Im a super rookie in this space. I personally leave them alone and have better results than fragging, but i have such limited experience.

Apparently amox dips save alot of coral from STN. I would look into that.
In my tank right now I took this approach of doing nothing and the STN did stop. But they were both new acros and at different times. In his tank, 4 of them STNing at the same time means something is probably happening in there

Nice! For now, I’ve decided on going with XR30 Blues. Do you have any regrets on Blues over Pro?
Since I’ve never had the Pro’s, I can’t really say. I’m getting great growth and good color running the Blues, so pretty happy with them.

My philosophy is never give up on a coral until I see algae growing over it.

This is a no name I got with my first SBB order January last year. First picture is when I got it. Second picture was March last year. It stayed completely white for 7 months. Third picture is today. Hasn’t colored up yet, but I just moved it back to high light last month. I hate giving up on them. It’s only started growing in the last two months.

Morning everyone. As it always happens, something will always go wrong when you take a little vacation. Post trip testing and Salinity was up to 36.3. Did some checking on the AWC and the saltwater removal line had stopped up with algae growth. Removed the line and put a new one in. Good thing it was a short trip. Next time I’ll just turn the AWC off and do a water change when I get back.

Tank is all clean now and corals look happy. Few shots from this morning. Just raw photos with no touch up. The three Neon Candy’s I’m not sure of. The post all say Neon Candy, but I don’t think they are the same corals.

Homewrecker, Fish Frenzy, Mind Freeze, ColorTopia

The middle picture you have the 3rd one listed as Disneyland but I think it's a neon candy. Looks just like our neon candy one. And looks more similar to your other two, which look like neon's also.

Here's ours

That is definitely a Disneyland. That was a small Disneyland I got in an auction. Post says Disneyland. Looks like my other Disneyland.

Maybe it was labeled wrong? Honestly, they look switched lol. The one you have in the second looks more Disneyland since it gets more bright green if I remember right. The the one you say is Disneyland looks identical to ours and other neon candy's. Maybe our neon candy is labeled wrong? Idk

@billyocean we need your expertise haha

Either way, they're both nice frags. I had a frag labeled orange blast, that I bought as orange blast at auction. But it's definitely not an orange blast but a cosmic bubblegum.

How often are you guys dosing your entire tank with antibiotics? It can’t be good to be doing it often.
I haven’t dosed the tank with them since last mid fall.
