    Casey's Red Sea S-1000

    Yeah seems like something bad is going around! Too soon to update my TJ but I think my tank is finally stabilizing. Definitely similar to what Casey has going on here.

    210 gallon Dream tank

    My tank had ich come and go the first couple years. It’s not the end of the world you may think it is if your fish are healthy. It eventually just stopped showing up. Feed a lot, feed often, feed a variety of food. I think this is the best thing to do for your fish. Keep their stress levels...

    Tyree 500 dollar efflorescens

    @iani this is one of the acros in my tank that hasn't been infected. In fact it's getting more flow and light now since removing some of the other colonies :p

    Derek's 225g - Magnifica / SPS Reef

    Thanks - my tank was so overcrowded I'm not even actually that worried about the coral loss (unless it never stops...). But thank you for the offers. I definitely want manila spy back in the tank, though. 100% agree most issues in established tanks owned by experienced keepers are bacterial...

    A tale of two mushrooms

    Don't try too hard to understand what's going on in the mind of a mushroom. They do what they want, and nobody can explain it.

    Derek's 225g - Magnifica / SPS Reef

    What happened next? Did it eventually STN? If so, this is very much like what I'm seeing with some of my acros.

    Derek's 225g - Magnifica / SPS Reef

    Mostly easier corals at first - although it's a mix of everything. Lost the appleberry monti I got from @CaseyP , lost my Manila Spy, lost a nepthea, had to rescue frag my beefy blue stag. had to rescue frag my garf bonsai. Probably going to lose my WD. Other corals - vivid confetti, merlin's...

    Derek's 225g - Magnifica / SPS Reef

    I've checked all the basics - with two different methods for most of the big ones. No swings in parameters or anything out of normal ranges for my particular tank. Corals have not all started suffering at once. Some corals are not impacted at all (so far). That's why I think it's some kind of...

    What changes did you see on your AB results after starting the witchhazel?

    Derek's 225g - Magnifica / SPS Reef

    No, this is the first significant coral loss event I've had in the nearly 3 years tank has been running. Did some big water changes over the weekend and am just going to let things ride now and hope I see some recovery. At this point I am suspecting either the lighting change (unlikely?) or the...

    Derek's 225g - Magnifica / SPS Reef

    Been a while since I updated - have been super busy with work and traveling almost every week. Unfortunately, having some major issues with the tank right now. Seeing random corals with what seems to be some kind of infection. It's not RTN or traditional STN, although it's turning into STN in...

    1/17/2026 4pm-7pm Castro Valley BAR New Year Holiday PotLuck

    Given the relatively low number of RSVPs, I'm not sure it's worth organizing a semi-formal swap. Maybe a googlesheet with DBTC and some trades makes more sense? How many folks are interested in bringing an ultra coral from those that plan to attend this event? Happy to organize something just...

    Reefing and setbacks

    Why do you think you're struggling with SPS this time around? Congrats BTW :)

    Rant : medical cost is crazy

    I don’t disagree with any of the rants, but the stuff you guys are going to the hospital for is honestly crazy to me!

    Acro growing colorful in some parts, pale in others

    lol, the front part is pale because that’s where it’s growing :) Tissue is thinner there. Looks great to me, be happy it’s growing so well !
