Hey guys!
So I just moved houses which meant taking apart and moving my 20g tank.. what about adventure that was! Everything transported well and I was able to get things back in order. Except my monti cap frag got knocked off the rock work and fell into my Duncan’s!

When I noticed I pulled it off but there were white spots on the Cap and Now it’s even starting to green in some areas that were white.. (it has been a couple weeks.) the red is continuing to disappear and the white spots are greening up (I assume algae)

Other than falling into the Duncan the only thingthat isn’t lining up is my alk which is at 7. I’m trying to get it back up to 9.

Is there anyway to stop it before it’s too late? And is it actually caused by the Duncan?
 
hi, slowly work that alk up my # would be 8.5, keep eye on cal,blow off area of damage with turkey baster,place a snail on overnight,remove in morning,keep area blown clean ,should recover just fine :)
 
As long as there is a viable section of healthy red it will usual come back or regrow over the dead/bleached areas.
