It's a chonker, hope it pulls through!For the sake of getting my submission in. My frag arrived today after an unfortunate 48 hours in transit due to “Mechanical Delays” with UPS. Frag is really upset and had a good amount of zoox die off and created cloudy water. I’m hoping for a strong bounce back and be a Real contender here! What would a grow out contest be with out a good challenge
First Submission:
LOL, never heard that term before.
I'm glad you did I was going to say chUnker?LOL, never heard that term before.

Daily updates?!Can't count me out yet! I didn't make it to the end of the last contest. I'm determined to, at the very least, end this with a beautiful colony and memories that I'll never forget. Let's gooooo! Measurement pics in 3 weeks. It's hard to see in the photo, but there is visible healing around the tips of the coralites and the color hasn't left it...yet.
I have nothing better to do! Just making sure everyone knows that I'm still in this.
I'm requesting daily updates
Still alive and healing. I haven't seen my test results or even the confirmation that the ICP test was received by Triton.I'm requesting daily updates
That's rough! Sorry for your losses. Glad to hear the frag is still kicking though.Well guys for anyone who thinks they have had it rough over the last month just be happy your not me. Ive been losing my favorite colonies one after another this past month. Losses are finally slowing down and luckily my bloodbank frag is continuing to grow. All this after my corals were looking the best they ever have. Going to be doing an icp test myself since at first whatever was causing corals to RTN was only my colonies that came from mariculture. More recently i started seeing losses on frags ive gotten from other reefers including most of what I got in my battlebox with my bloodbank frag but much more like STN then RTN. This is the first time I've had a mass loss, I think i had a little over 1k into the colonies and frags that have died so far.

Maybe lighting or flow? Stray voltage? Temperature swings?

I couldn't see the results, it was just a link to triton analysis home page...
Not sure what the problem is. I can see it when I click on the link. I attached a .pdf version.
My guess is was likely lighting/flow. Temp is fairly stable in the 77-79 range. I don't think it's stray voltage, but maybe. The tank is plugged into an outlet that is further down the line from a GFCI, so I figured it would have tripped. I don't know a lot about electrical stuff, so that could be wrong. What would I need to get to check that?
