I lost a little nub hw as well. On my second piece but bought a bigger chunk and it’s doing well after 4 months or so. Sometimes I think the piece is just not healthy and won’t do well regardless of how solid your tank is. Not much comfort I’m sure but based on how the other pieces you have this piece probably wasn’t going to do well in any tank.

Hey I appreciate the kind words. I am over the disappointment and I think you are correct. Tenuis’ do have a tendency do this once in a while. I am going to get my nitrates up to 2-3ppm before I buy it again.
