Re: Fungias problem

I have one of those sunset fungia.
A pic of how they look now would help.

You say water parms are fine but what are they exactly?
In my nano my fungia lets me know when my nitates are getting high.

If they are getting stung then something in your tank has longer sweeper tentacles than you think.

Re: Fungias problem

It not uncommon for them to receed from the edges when kept in captivity. They really don't have the best long term survival when kept in captivity either.
