Well, I am feeling really good after yesterday. The scoly ate some mysis very fast and even when for a larger chunk later, but the basslet claimed it first. Still not interested in Fauna Marin pellets, but I am just going to lay off of those until now. It's really like the chunks/food from Rod's reef so we will stick with that. As for the coloring, not a dramatic difference, but I am starting to see what I believe is the pigment thickening and starting to re-establish more. What I mean by that is when the lights are on you see the colors (as in my pics above), but when the lights are off, it's very pale. It's starting to have that defined color in areas now regardless of the lighting. To me this is huge. I also realized I should have started a scoly recovering project thread instead of just this one. I actually have two other scolys recovering at this same time so it's like a frustrating project from you know where. The other one is actually pictured above, it's missing a pie slice from it that is very very slow to recover. Otherwise, what's there is doing well. The other is in my 39 and is a multi year project. I got the scoly back in 2009, a huge master beauty. I got lazy and it got bad. Lost a lot of tissue and at one point I actually thought I was going to lose it. Well, I started it on a recovery project over a year ago and it is slowly coming back. Not sure the timeline, but I will see what I have for before and after pics. I am just thrilled to see it growing over exposed skeleton. that was the biggest accomplishment for me. Starting to prove that patience pays off...patience is not something I'm good with, these have all been a true test.
