Man dude ive been getting a unfair share of STN as of late. When I get home I run around and close the windows back up. drives my poor wife crazy. I dont even know that we have pollen in the air but somethings messing with my tank.
is that a real thing? pollen and all, i have been opening my windows to help raise the PH and i would say over the last 2 months i had 2 or 3 acros RTN. everything else was fine.
The ones that RTN had been in tank for almost a year.

Is it scientifically proven not sure, but a fair amount of reefers believe it to be a real thing.
Im not sure what the cause is, I used to think it was just a running joke until I started paying more attention and it deffinetliy seems to be a thing.

Freaking got my Bozo. No other explanation. Looks like the 2 frags I saved will succumb also as they have STN. Everything else looks fantastic. :(

Adam had the cool idea of doing a contest/giveaway in the Spring growout for best growth in the first month. I believe he will announce the winners on Friday or Saturday.

But what about us you say ? We the unsung hero's of the Summer growouts who have been battling in the trenches for months ! Well good news, we have had a super secret contest going on in these summer growouts behind the scenes also.. 🤫 The Battlecrew has been working with old recently discovered sketches from Nikola Tesla, engineers from Oak Ridge Laboratories and using recent photos from the Artemis launch to develop the grading scale for this contest.

So with out further ado the winner for Colliderscope gift card is .... @skey44

Additionally one more prize will be given out to the first person to correctly guess how/why the summer growout contestants were selected for this giveaway.

Edit: It was brought to my attention that I need to make it clear this is the winner for the secret giveaway not the actual growout contest :)

Hey for anyone not getting PE and weird growth and color I recommend researching a milbemycin treatment.
This was one of my most dramatic turnarounds after 4 doses in consecutive weeks. Make sure to check that out . I worked with a local “exotic” vet for the prescription. She didn’t even charge me a consult fee.

Still going strong and growing faster than a Paletta TriColor lol. Tons of new tips in the back and from the base.

BC Colliderscope-growing like crazy. From the side view, which I don’t have at the moment, it’s getting wider and wider, LOL

Bonus top down from March 2026-forgot I had this shot. It’s quite a bit bigger now. I’ll get another top down for next month.
