| Tunicate  | frogspawn unattached Help needed- I recently added a frogspawn frag to my tank. It had been doing pretty well until today when it has unattached from the plug and has moved just next to it. It appears that the head is still on the plug. Is it a goner, or do they do this? Any opinion appreciated.Thx, |

| Elegance coral | Re: frogspawn unattached Well frogspawn is not a mobile coral. It has a stoney skeleton and is anchored by this. The head (or polyps) also cannot self disconnect from the skeleton. So I would say that the glue holding the frag in place gave way or something fell on it and broke it.

It's ALL gotta go!! Nitrate (NO3) reduction is directly proportional to percentage of Water Change. Allen's home-made formula...currentNO3-((%WC*.01)currentNO3)=finalNO3 (thanks Luukosian) This means if you change 50% of your total water volume (That's EVERYTHING) you'll get a net reduction of (NO3) somewhere around 50%. Ask me about how to increase your REEF budget without going without FOOD!!
