Hi all,
I added some MacroAlgae to my newer tank, and picked up a red tree sponge at the same time. I failed to read prior to placement, and the sponge was exposed to air for the 2 seconds from bag to tank.
It looked awesome upon placement, but began turning white within 3 days. It's placed in moderately high flow area, and has partial shade.
I assume it's dead, or nearly.
Primary questions here:
1) any chance at revival, given time, and
2) if dead, does it need to be removed?
Positing before and after photos, assuming I figure out how..
