I had a power outage in my room and my tank was off for more than 6h. I had a bacterial bloom, an acro fully rtn, and fish gasping for air. Ive since been able to fix it but noticed my pink tequila acro develop a brown spot. Its also had dye off on the back side. I suspected rtn stn but I can't identify it. There's so a little white spot at the base near the front which ive had issues identifying. Nothing major has happened but im just wondering if its maybe worth superglueing over

On your tank thread you posted you glued an area of stn previously, how did that work out?
Pink Acro looks more bleached than actually loosing tissue?
Please follow up with results if you glue the spot.

Probably around 70% of the superglhing works. Sometimes it spreads more and you glue over and jt stops. Ive had quite a few rtn pieces but majority came back (hardest are wilds)

Its looking normal but I have noticed white patches similar to bleaching but also no major color changes. It hadn't lost tissue but the right side dead spot is new. A hermit crab spends 24/7 there for some reason. Everytime i knock it down or relocate it he climbs back up. Its really odd and no ones been able to explain it but it caused that dead spot

Ill update again tomororw
 
I believe hermits follow pheromone trails, they must.
I have had multiple hermits that would migrate to the tips of the same Acropora every afternoon.
I have tried the crazy glue intervention, it never seemed to make a difference, thats why I am curious.
