| Re: Is Bleaching Coral's Way of Making the Best of a Bad Situation?
good info,
one thing i notice, with a carpet anemone i got from Spkyes. it had been kept under lower light, fed heavily and was pale green. when i put it under my halides its was pale for a few weeks, then started to turn white.i reduced feeding, i fed it sparingly. over the next few weeks had turned the palest of green over all with only a few spots of "proper Green". then within a week, it burst into color again. i fed a large shrimp and it blew up like a ballon vibrant in color.
needless to say i was quite concerned for its health, and was VERY relieved to see its recovery. perhaps this is also an example of out with the old, in with the new (and improved.)
