It turned all white , it’s still in my tank hoping by some miracle it’ll come back to life! My zoa and blasto are doing great! Got a new polyp every time I look at them

Once your tank matures, becomes stable and goes on cruise control the stress becomes minimal. Your in the fun part even with the ups and downs. Happy reefing !

I 100% understand what you mean! You just want to get to a place where you can sit back and enjoy it. Learn as much as you can from these good folks and that knowledge will help make this stay enjoyable for you.

That's great to hear that.your other corals are doing well. I had a really finicky rhodactis mushroom that I thought was completely dead. I spot fed it a few times and moved it in the shade where it received less light. Now it's the best looking coral in my tank.

 

[cuzzoo3345]

I’m definitely taking in all the knowledge people are sharing! Yes I’m definitely ready for that part lol!! I’m glad to hear your mushie came back to life! Mine has been in a shaded spot and I spot feed it but no revival of it yet unfortunately!
