I got some mats from a hobbyist and I had them in a 10 gallon with an older heater. I did not know that the temp got up to about 90 or so. It was hot. It was like that for maybe a a day. That was a few weeks ago. The mats I did not flush are a noce dark purple still. I see some very small polyps stick out periocally but they are white. And it is very slow. Just a few polyps. I probably meesed up with the ones I flushed. They too had the white polyps sticking out. Very few. I thought they were dead. Plus the mat wasn't dark purple and they did have some smell. Anyway this is really taking a ling time but ever so slowly staring to come out.
