Look at that polyp extension, these are all from the same Kupang import!

welp...ive blown it. feeling pretty deflated on this one...

My icp finally came back and may explain some things...

iodine - ZERO
molybdenum - 18 (should be 12 max and was likely even higher thanks to nopox use)
potassium - 324
strontium 5 (should be 10ish)

some back story - my skimmer died back in like august and parts have been unobtainable as have new nano skimmers. I was relying on NoPox as well as a chaeto reactor as best i could, but was struggling with phos of 0.3-0.4. Finally started running GFO a few days before the frags arrived and got phos to around 0.15 for their arrival...but this seems to have zapped a piece or two that have been in the tank for months including a mini colony of pc rainbow, and a nice 3 branch solar flare frag

the drop in phos seems to have also killed alk consumption which led to an excursion from 8.8ish to almost 10 before i realized.

started a 4 day regimen to get potassium up to 380+, trying to find strontium and iodine locally and save what i can.

seems i was tetering on the edge of a tank crash....not a happy Monday :(

Hey guys update on colors of my two mariculture frags here they are. I am seeing some nice color developing on both- a lot a encrusting growth and new grow out points on the larger frag and very little notable growth if any on the small nub -I think this could make a case for a larger frag size so they aren't stunted and recover faster
