What Coral is Impossibe For You to Keep

[raymond]

yumas melt away in my tank, yet i have orange ricordias that grow like crazy

 

[FishLipz]

Mille for me too. Lost a palmers blue, rouge, and sunset.

 

[Kataro]

Chalices and Acan for me... I lost most of my chalice and acan.. only 1 chalice is still left but it never grows! But the goniopora I have in there is going nuts with growth though

 

[FaviaFreak]

certain Zzzz and Pzzz always seem to melt :cry:

 

[Paul_N]

milli for me also. I have no problem with any other coral, sps or lps.

 

[akabryanhall]

I may as well throw acropora echinata in there as well, deep water acros can be difficult as well.

 

[Captain Nemo]

SPS for me, mine like to fight with each other and bleach themselves, even after I have glued them to the rocks.... grr............

For me its from tank to tank, and i dont have the faintest clue why...its been driving me crazy for a year or so.

Office tank: I can keep anything, and grow it well...
Home takn: Only soft corals, but thats because its skimmerless/fugeless. But its mainly a fish tank anyways....
Frag tank: Z's and P's. Ive tried monti's to no avail, they slowly lose tissue and PE. <--stable params, pH varies less than .5 pts in a day, alk stays steady @ 3.0 meg/l, sg is steady, and temp is steady. I dont know whats going on in this tank

for me it's the bonsai garf type sps, had 2 they stayed brown and both died. everything else in my tank is doing ok.

 

[subdrive]

sps for me. I think its because My systems setup for chalice with lots of feeding.
Also not sufficient light.

For some reason I can't keep the color to stay on any meteor shower cyphastrea I have tried. I have had other ones and had no problem.

Have you tried keeping them in the shade?

[BlazinNano]

Torches. My frogspawn and my hammer do great. Have been through three torches. Three diferent suppliers. All last a week or two then met away.

 

[Frank]

again Z & P's

 

[miyags]

I tried the carnation type once and it melted after 3weeks. I'd love to keep a tank of them, the colors are amazing!!!!

 

[gofor100]

Z's and P's... but then again, I try to keep my Acro's happy, so there definitely might be a conflict of interest there.

 

[korndogg091]

i have several types of z's&p's and for some reason I cant keep nightmares for the life of me. everytime they melt away while everything else is doing great.
