Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
That's the point, it would be a great show tank which Greg needs/wants ;)
Greg go for the 200 you'll be happy you did ;D
40 breeder is a good choice but small and fills up quick if you have sps that grows quickly
If the flesh is not peeling away then it is not RTN or STN. What you are describing is recession and it is usually related to alk issues, if the tank that the frag came from had a lower alk then yours, that with the amount of stress caused by crabs and being knocked over is making it worse. I...
Thanks Mike, if you have that one you didn't get it from me :P that's the halloween milli from ATL ;D well if you need to borrow my camera..... NO! :P you can borrow me one day and I'll bring my camera ;) LOL

Hope this helps... ro/di testing 0 doesn't really mean your tank water is pure, you could still have phos and nitrates in the tank, have your water tested for phos from someone who has a meter this way you'll have a accurate result, reading should be .002 or lower which standard test kits don't...
Common stuff and ORA stuff can be found at LFS, I personally get my ORA SPS from Steve at aqua oceans he has the best prices on them.
