To those peeps with beautiful setups and take pride in their efforts. What do you do with your most beloved SPS corals when you suffer a loss? Do you move it to a book shelf and put it on display? Do you have a little burial? Toss it out the window? Or sell it off like a beachy gift shop? Just curious what people do with deceased Stony’s?

I'm sorry I misunderstood the title.

As to dead coral little ones I bin. Larger ones I'll toss in the sump.
 
Dang it i thought this was going to be a hook up....lol i keep all mine and then sort through and toss little guys keep bigger just as a reminder to do better lol...
 
I had a dead hammer shipped to me and after boiling it twice and soaking it in bleach and airing for a month it still stinks. Was going to give it to one of the kids. But like the in-sump suggestion. How do you prep them for in-sump?

I wouldn't say any of my acros are beloved. But when I lose colonies. Their skeleton is used to grow more coral, by tossing them into the calcium reactor.

Put it on an ant pile and let them pick it clean!

I open up my Bible to an appropriate passage and say a few words, sniffling at certain pause points and then drop it in the sump.

Once it has been boiled and bleached I treat it like an embalmed cadaver and drop it in.
