My birds nest colony that was doing amazing for two years has suddenly completely bleached white. Will it ever come back or should I just pull it out and throw it away? Anything I can do here?

Will it grow back?Did this happen overnight? Any other details we may be missing? With growth of that size I’m inclined to think you have reef keeping skills and did all you could to save it. Bummer man, looks like it was a beauty
How do you know if it is bleached vs. dead?Depends on whether it is bleached or dead - they are not the same thing.
Interesting. Just noticed algae growing. Thanks.If its bleached i found algae wont grow on it... if itsi dead algae will soon grow on the skeleton
I had the same after changing light and settings.
Too much light, inadequate water flow and nutrients will cause this as well as high alk , low ph and low salinity. I would check all mentioned
I was under the impression that if a birdsnest wasn't getting blown off the rock work, then there wasn't too much flow.I just got a new pump, so now there’s more flow than before. Could too much flow cause this?
Absolutely. Moderate flow is favorableI just got a new pump, so now there’s more flow than before. Could too much flow cause this?
