This Goni. It's not dead yet. 20251228_203520.jpg
Partial tank shot.
I can’t remember if a hydrogen peroxide solution might help this out . I don’t remember how long or what solution . Also looking at it it might be too late . Sorry 😐
 
Put em up high. If you're par is enough to support euphyllia at mid and low levels in your tank, you should have the light up there for acros. Blast the @#%! out of them with flow and keep your water stable. Doesn't have to be perfect but it needs to be stable.

Do you know what GPH of flow you have or what wave makers and settings you use and do you have wave makers facing them or off to the side? Right now my plan is to run too facing each other in anti sync so they would get around 1800 GPH from the wave makers but some time only 900 GPH as they have some overlap but not all the time. Due to Antisync 2 second on after 1 second the other one starts for two seconds and so on. Sorry for all the questions lol

For us the Christmas season runs to February 2nd, just letting you know so if you see Christmas trees and creches in my photos, you'll know why. 😄
