I bought a Pink Carnation coral a month or so ago. So far so good. (researched the heck out of it for years, yes) But Its lost a little weight.
Has anyone had success with these? what are you feeding and have you got any preferred parameters?(clean dirty).
I have a lot of bivalves sponges gorgs etc and doing well.
Coral frenzy Phyto Zoo live brine from time to time etc. Im wondering if I'm missing something.
Sally Jo @ Garf has a video. 1 min and she says "feed it". Thats it. LOL
A scientific study in a lab environment done at a coral farm says it will die. :confused:lol
Any success stories or will it die like the Mandarin Im looking at right now.:D

Thanks!!

BTW. Not a coral for the faint of heart. It's almost a foot tall and did this.
