Hi
I'm unsure which this is. I only noticed it yesterday as being this dramatic. I haven't had a chance to run tests yet but I plan to when i get home. Just think what I should plan for.

Last time we checked parameters, they were all within BRS standards. This is our first sps.

I meant RTN/STN- tried to write on my phone and it autofilled in correctly.
 
Bleaching looks like this:

Colour gone polyps and skin stays.

RTN/STN the skin is gone:

From your picture I suspect RTN. Hard to tell from the blue.

What exactly are BRS standard parameters? Just curious.

Good luck,

Hi thanks for the reply. We just tested this morning I've attached a photo. I noticed another green birds nest frag become completely white in 24 hours. Im also guessing RTN. Does a UV sterilizer help?

Is light to high?
Probably just shock could have been something a week or a month ago in my experience. Or just different light and water than the lfs or reefer you got it from

We actually got them from RAP in Orlando...I know there is a possibility of losing some due to shock. It was April 21st. This happened with in the last 5 days
 
Still within the realm with sps to long in the bag or just different parameters
