TheKleinReef Posted May 3, 2016 Author Share Posted May 3, 2016 Oh no! Sorry to hear that Roger. I hope you can make a comeback. Not likely. I'm not there to do anything, and the parents aren't going to do much either. The only survivors are the LPS and the katropora. Hopefully I can find someone to take it/save it. 1 Quote Link to comment
ninjamyst Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 nooooooooooooooooo. don't break it down. can it be solved with a few water changes??? Quote Link to comment
TheKleinReef Posted May 3, 2016 Author Share Posted May 3, 2016 nooooooooooooooooo. don't break it down. can it be solved with a few water changes??? I'm sure it can. Will they do them though.... probably not. I think turning the dosser off since nothing is growing and 3 20% water changes per week with a bacteria boost could solve it. but I don't see them doing that Quote Link to comment

TheKleinReef Posted May 3, 2016 Author Share Posted May 3, 2016 Ouch. If it makes you feel any better, the Kat you gave me it finally starting to take off. well if the kat starts to go down hill, would you mind taking the colony? I don't want to lose it. 1 Quote Link to comment
Mr. Microscope Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 well if the kat starts to go down hill, would you mind taking the colony? I don't want to lose it.No problem! Just give me a heads-up if you need help. You can have it back too if it holds and you're somehow able to reboot. Quote Link to comment
markalot Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Sorry, hopefully stopping the dosing will help get it back to stable. Quote Link to comment

I'll let you know. Thanks man. Sorry, hopefully stopping the dosing will help get it back to stable. I think that was the initial wound to the tank... one step too far an boom it was all downhill Sorry to hear, Roger. Gonna try to convince the parents to keep it going. not sure how successful I'll be 1 Quote Link to comment
markalot Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 KH drops generally don't do as much harm as things stop growing as it falls, it's the spikes that can kill damn near anything. Regardless, hopefully it settles down. Need a remote KH tester. 1 Quote Link to comment

metrokat Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 If they can get it to stop crashing and be stable again, it can be rebuilt. Sucks to lose so many colonies but hopefully it is better than it looks on camera. Quote Link to comment

TheKleinReef Posted May 4, 2016 Author Share Posted May 4, 2016 Dang man, sorry to hear about this /comfort Thanks guys. I'm really hoping taking the doser off and adding some microbacter7 will help. 3 Quote Link to comment
Anden Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 That is some sad reading, and i realy hope to see the tank come back, but omg all the corals growing we seen on youtube and in all the pages on here. I realy hope you save the last corals but what a sad time for reefing. Quote Link to comment
