Have whats starting to look like dinos pop up in my tank and want to nip it in the but with a 3-4 day blackout. Anything I should be concerned about with my acros or should they weather the storm fine? Most importantly should I stop dosing during the black out?
 
3 days was the most I have done without significant coral changes. Right at 3 days was when I saw a slight color loss and 4 or more might turn worse quick but maybe someone has experience with it. If all the corals are healthy and growing and not already stressed I wouldn’t sweat it. Maybe just monitor your levels while the lights are off.
