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.
Just remember every coral you are putting in your tank, is like putting every tank it has ever been in into your tank.

We had this happen to us with an acro falling onto a sunset monti. The acro won the battle and left a big white spot on the monti with no polyps extenstion in that area. We just left it alone and made sure the water quality was very good. After a week or so it started to color up and the polyps...
If we had known that you were a deacon Bill, we would have asked. You could have married us at AO and the fish would be the witnesses.
We only have a pre-nup for the corals and fish, we don't care enough about anything else. :D
That was her answering using my name, even after being together over 5 years I could not put something like that together. Even if I finished the bottle of wine we are working on, I could not come up with that.
Thanks guys.
Bill, it was great to see you as well. We will be at MACNA, wouldn't miss if for the world.
I usually refrain from unleashing the legalease on those I like.... aka you guys. However, if you really feel you need to know my thoughts on the naming of "Her 20", here it is:

Thank you for the response, with the ac being fixed we are back to our stable temps over the past two weeks and nothing has gotten worse. We had heard adding some phyto with bleached out corals can help. We were just wondering if there was any other methods out there.
Do you have any pics? Did you introduce anything new into the tank recently? Do you do any dips on your corals when you add them? How has the heat level in your tank been?
Until we have more information it is going to be tough for anyone on here to diagnose a problem.
With inverts drip acclimation is key as they are very sensitive to water changes. Drip acclimation happens to be very easy though, so it is not a big deal. I would go with the conch if you can, cucumber have been know to crash a tank if they become stressed/die. Unfortunetly the only invert that...
I don't have any basis of comparison, but I do love the pheonix 14k. I have pics up in the equipment conversation thread if you want to take a look. As far as growth goes, I have only had them up for a month, so I can't answer that part yet.
Here is the link...
Your fish will look very stressed or would be dead depending on the species. Your corals (if you have them) would also suffer and your inverts would be dead. That is why I doubted you had that high of a level if everything was still alive.
