hopefully it stays confused!This frag has been tortured a bit and is confused right now with a mix of neon green polyps/highlights.
The original frag did have the blue and red. If you look closely enough you can see the skeletal outline of the 4 eyed chunk that was glued to the rock. I'm not sure how long it would take to a red frag to produce some blue or vice versa. Even if it ever did, I would suspect it wouldn't be near as desirable as a more strategically cut frag from the start since a 50/50 split is probably the best outcome.
Experiencing the same thing I gone over everything multiples time, and tried everything. Just curious I’ve been doing this a long time never saw the need use chemiclean or cared about tiny bit cyano. After reading it stopped stn on several different forums I’m at a lose willing to try it. Did you do anything special other then half dose?
Nothing special really. I opened the skimmer drain and let it run back into the sump. You’ll want this in order to keep oxygen levels up. After 48hrs I then collected the skimmate in a 5gal bucket to remove most of the chemiclean from the water. You should notice your skimmer returning to normal production. Some carbon took care of the rest.
Yes, I mixed the powder into a small cup of RO water and dumped in. No livestock looked any different during treatment, fish or coral. If you've ruled out any other issues this might be worth a try. Be advised that it will knock back all kinds of bacteria within your tank, good or bad. In my circumstance I was confident that the bad bacterias were outcompeting any beneficial types, as I observed what I believed were infections coupled with progressive cyano for several weeks before treatment.Cool thanks! No water change, just carbon? Basically one full scoop per 20 gallon dosage rate? Did you notice any reaction in the acros in terms of filaments or reduced PE? My situation nearly identical, now I’m going 2 plus months I can’t let anything else start going. It’s weird things are doing great in general it’s just some established colonies while they’re shooting new growth like crazy stn’ing same at
time. My head just wants to explode lol
Sorry for all the question I’ve never used chemiclean in 20 years on my personal tanks. Never on full sps tank, just lps and mixed I’ve used it on. There’s all these horror stories it has me all super paranoid.
Thanks for your input I really appreciate it! I experienced cyano breakout on my rocks which in the 2 years my current tanks been running has never happened. It totally coincided with the stn, because I noticed cyano and a day or two later the stn. The cyanos gone now siphoned it out back when it popped up. After turning tank over
Trying to get some of that yellow glow out of this piece, but to no avail. I've had similar results from my TSA Dan Akroyd. Maybe I need it to hit a better size before the green shows me something more?
