TheKleinReef Posted January 29 Author Share Posted January 29 Drained and moved the tank over about 20” everything went super smooth. All the new corals are looking super good. I’ll mount some sps tomorrow. I have a full rack to mount (16) Quote Link to comment
TheKleinReef Posted January 29 Author Share Posted January 29 Pretty sure they did not give me a bill Murray 😞 it’s like gold and green not like the one in the pic Nor is it the same shape 1 Quote Link to comment

My bill murray is straight up green blob right now, zero polyps, zero orange. The only thing I was a bit thrown off was the overall polyps and corallites distribution on the branches, given how fuzzy it looks. looks like the tank is doing really these days. 🙌 Quote Link to comment

And did you ask them about it? You think you have too much flow or not enough? I have my MP10s at like 25% and pretty much all of my SPS have RTNd. They were looking GREAT for over a 2 weeks and then one day they died one by one. No changes. Water quality is perfect. But tank is young. 3 months. Normally I wait until 6 months. ugh Quote Link to comment

But tank is young. 3 months. Normally I wait until 6 months. ugh It's hard to say RTN is a tricky thing cause it happens so fast. I had mine at 25% and the two corals closest to them def got their flesh ripped off . I have a hard time balancing flow in this aquarium. I'm considering doing 4 neros to better distribute flow. right now i have them set to 15% and some of my LPS really get thrashed around Quote Link to comment
