Thriving or Surviving: How are your corals doing today?

[AlyciaMarie Verified Admin]

Some coral is as hardy as hardy gets, while others can change and decline on a dime. One requires high flow, while the other needs a gentle aqua-breeze. The corals we keep and care for are so vastly different that it can be challenging to keep them all simultaneously happy. But it's a challenge that most of us take...

How are your corals doing today? Honest answers only!

If you're having problems keeping your coral happy, post about it in the comments, and maybe someone will jump in and help you figure out the problem!

Toadstool gsp and mushroom? Doing great. Zoas? could be better, they are still unhappy after our urchin moved them to the other side of the tank

other: tore down the tank... had to move. @Reefer_kano has my corals until who knows when

before that, i was struggling with an OG bounce that melted away likely due to bacterial infection or allelopathy. my CSBBTA also took a stroll and walked into my jebao gyre and almost crashed the tank(slight dino outbreak was the only thing that occurred)

Same as always, "Almost everything is doing good." There's always got to be somebody who's being a drama queen.

Almost everything is doing good. 20 gal tideline AIO and I have found that being new to corals this time around that I seem to have problems with some sps...montipora, acropora, while the leptoseris is doing great, moderate on the cyphastrea so far. All LPS, soft, and mushroom doing great. Someone did say it's probably the size of my tank that could be part of the problem, I'm still learning and researching

This time of the year is awesome for all my coral. Opening the windows really gets the ph up and the coral go into overdrive with growth.

I have three corals recently knocked off the rock work. My prime suspect?

I said almost everything is doing great. There is always one coral at any given time that is acting up!

Easy stuff only and all had been doing fine for quite a while until:
- My clownfish decided to start biting off my Duncan tentacles about a week ago
- Sinularia had been growing and shading a patch of Ricordea for quite a while but they just recently started to apparently not like that
