Browned sps recovery

robs.mark · May 28, 2021

Hey all,

I just got back from my LFS in Perth Australia with three little bargains. This particular shop (more of a superstore for aquariums) relies on high turnover. Apparently they have high nutrients in one of their holding tanks as a batch of wild sps had browned out over a few weeks. I picked up a Milli, and two acros for $40 Australian. I thought it would be a cool experiment to see if I can colour them up.

Does anyone have any similar experiences and do you have any before/after pics?

ill try to get some pics tomorrow hen my light aren’t so blue.

Amazing! You’d have to be happy with that.

Wild colony or from a fellow reefer?

I’m pretty certain that the Milli is pink, and the acros and blue/purple.. you can just about make it out.

My experience has shown be that acros can completely change colour under different conditions so we‘ll see what we get.
