Hi! Just had to share a happy event in my otherwise sad looking tank.
To make a long story short, I had a tank full of corals, most of them died in a hard crash, exept a few whos not looking too hot.
I cleaned out almost all skeletons as they died, but for some wierd reason I left a Euphyllia colony despite it being just a sharp pointy white shell getting covered in algae and lately Cyano.
Well, today, about 2 months after being declared dead, it showed some small polyps deep inside a few heads covered with Cyano!
So happy right now, its really a miracle! I am going to nurture this coral back to its former glory! :)
Anyone else have experienced something similar, counting out a coral only to have it recover along time later? :)

Before tank went south:

Dead for sure?

And today, life!

(I uncovered the coral from Cyano as soon as I saw it was alive, now I just need a plan of action against it.)
