LOVE those zoa's mate!!
Good to hear everything is coming back in the tank and the corals are happy againSome really nice animals in the tank and looking very happy and healthy
Thank you. I actually just fragged a bunch of them to cover the base of the island on the right.

Hey everyone. I'm still alive. Just wanted to stop in and give some updates. I'll start with the good. I recently won the $200 BRS pick prize for my anemone. Here is a couple pictures.

As far as the bad, I went out if town for a little bit for work and had to stay a little longer than I thought. I didn't plan on that, so when I got back my alkalinity had dropped to just below 7 dKH. The only coral it affected was my sour apple birds nest. Her are the before and after pics

He has started to shred all the polyps on my acros. As you can see the one he is sitting on has no polyp extension at all.

What is the coral on the right? I like it.

That is very odd behavior. I know that they can kill corals by laying eggs and all.... but shredding the coral? In the wild they shred algae and the like that get near their coral. Sorry to hear this.... I actually found your other thread on this, but didn't have much to contribute so didn't post anything. Again, this behavior sucks, sorry.

It's part of the risk I took when I bought a fish that could be prone to nipping sps polyps. Live and learn I guess haha. That coral is a meteor shower cyphastrea. It grows pretty fast and it seems to like all kinds of light intensities and changes colors depending on where you put it.

Ok everyone. I have some serious problems that myself and a few local reefers here can't figure out. My entire tank (excluding fish) is slowly dying. It started with some SPS now I have lost almost all SPS and it is moving toward LPS and even some zoas are dying off. Here are my current parameters.
Ammonia-0
Nitrite-0
Nitrate-0
Alk-8.5
Calc-450
Mag- 1440
Phos- 0.04
Ph-8.4 right before lights went out
Copper-0
Temp 78.6
I run a biopellet reactor and I dose seachem reef fusion 1 & 2 for alk and calc. I had a thread called fading Montipora but I realized its a bigger problem than I thought. I have ruled out flatworms and haven't seen red bugs for months. I've ruled out a rogue fish because they are doing the same thing in my frag tank. The frag tank is plumbed into the main system too. Here are some pictures.
