Lasses Dream Build

There is other things than fish and corals in my aquarium. Latest video that shows one of my (scary) beauties. Look 2.28 into the video in order to find a counter-evidence to one of the myths about snails

Love this video! Was the Conch getting stung by that (Chalice?) coral at 2:28?

No - he/she discovered gravity😂 Like Newton but it was him/herself that fell -not an apple

Lasse’s tank is amazing! I really like the natural reef look and the way he focuses on biological filtration instead of relying too heavily on equipment. There’s a lot to learn from this build, especially about keeping nutrients stable.
 
I have a thief in my aquarium

The good and the bad. It could be worse - I have a Blenny who eats the entire polyp.
 
I have had a lot of different Seriatopora species (hystrix and caliendrum) since I start this aquarium. They are fast growing and rather beautiful sps corals. The setback with them is that they grow like weed but suddenly they no longer want to be part of your aquarium - instead, they bleach and die within a day. Its unclear if it is because of water parameters or caused by microorganism or a combination of those two. My believe is the later - its a combination.

Last time was a year ago and I had to throw away a 20 L bucket with Seriatopora and the tank looks like this after the slaughter

A couple of days ago - its looks like this

A rather good growth - but yesterday it was time for bleaching again and reconstruction of a part of the reef.
This part has to go. However - I do not know if I have stopped the process or not. The coming day will show if its over or not. One of the reason this time was that the left colony had grow up over the surfaces

Mysterious , and disheartening I would like to know the answer. I have a Kiwi tree that has been " deflated " now for a couple of weeks . I am trying to backtrack to see if it recovers. The only drastic things I did was to purposely overdose A- and K+ , and add two large netted bags of Carbon in the sump. I have not dosed for over a week, did water change , and removed the Carbon. Three days later a slight positive change. So for you possible things you have done ? I had the same experience with Seriatopora wanting to take over . I had to cut it back three times. Just what was trying to engulf my other Coral . A couple of months later it does not do it anymore , which I found a little eerie
 
Its probably not over because I got some damage on a blue Stylophora that was in contact with my hystrix. We will see wats going to happen - still some large colonies of both Seriatopora and stylophora not affected.
