The Miracle Tank

Fin · Apr 29, 2020

I was dosing 2-part and started putting kalkwasser in my top off water instead. That's the only thing I did differently, other than add some frags from Marine Farmers a few months back.

Oh, and I did put the Oxydator in the sump. Doubt that had anything to do with it though.

I had it quickly. I'm guessing the Miracle will be the same way.

I'm going to dislike the rock being different colors.

You can yell at me if you want, ... I know a voluptuous plus lady in Calgary that would enjoy re-arranging your body parts!

I can kill a Montipora faster than anyone. Easiest coral right?

StatelineReefer said:
I have the same issue, Monti cap fragments just go pale then white, no matter what water or light settings I put them under...

They just die... like, within a week die.

Katrina71 said:
I hope to God I can do a red monti cap.

Okay, gotta get you guys a piece of my slow burn monti. That thing grows like a weed. I’ve had pieces break off and just left them there....still grows..just laying in the sand bed

@Katrina71... hope you can too. Already have a piece set aside for you
