How to Bleach Corals?

[Horn]

I am in a rush and didn't get to read the new comments. They will be read soon. Here is a link to my tank thread that was started last week. The soft coral will be given away since they form no skeleton. I am looking for feedback on how the aquascape will look as a FOWLR.

I don't see where the general consensus is turning off the lights. If I am reading all the posts properly it seems like everybody is saying not to do what u r planning on doing.

I don't see the point in bleaching captive bred corals

If you want to go FOWLR I'd try selling those SPS, they're awesome, I'm sure someone here would buy them. If I had a larger tank I know I'd gladly buy some. I do understand what you're trying to do, but it seems wasteful to spend all that time and effort to grow those coral just to let them die. Plus it would look pretty barren if they were to die.

I would gladly take the coral that u dont want. PM me if u would like to sell them please

@Horn If you can't sell them or give them to fellow reefers than a LFS will take them off your hands.

Yeah I really dislike this thread.

Instead of doing the bleached coral theme to change things up I made some frags and traded it in at the fish store for new frags. The new coral will give me something new to look at. I want the corals to grow fast. If people can give advice here I would appreciate it.

Thank God you changed your mind!

Watching the frags grow is much more rewarding and beautiful than killing your already grown out pieces.

It was one of those things that sounded good at the moment but the next day it is like .... I will update my tank thread with more pictures. Check it out a link is posted in this thread.

Great news to hear, your tank was beautiful by the way.

I think I can donate u some of my dead skeleton pieces and I'm sure others have some laying around to u could get

I also have a really pretty piece of dead coral and purple barnacles if you'd like them. Sorry, I'm new so I'm learning how to navigate the site. If you'd like to send your address, I will mail them next week. These are nice expensive pieces.
