Nudibranch Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 One of my Blastmussa merleti aren't doing too well pics are enclosed. It looks like the tissue is receeding, and i'm not sure what to do. everything else is good. Calc 420ppm Alk 2.98meq/l Spec Grav 1.023 Nitrates unmeasurable Link to comment
brahm Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 how long have you had it. Link to comment
Acoustic Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 The culprit is the hermie in the picture. He is just climbing on it regularly. Sometimes hermies will rip away coral tissue to get to some meaty food that it has inside of it. Link to comment
FateX9 Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 but i thought hermits were reef safe i guess my question is how long has it been receeding Link to comment
EtOH_is_good Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 reef safe depends on the hermit crab and also the definition. what are the flow and lights around the coral in question? got to get the flow correct. have you tried spot feeding? Link to comment
