Now i have a rather sickly BTA - which i have had for nearly 10 years and after by daughter tipped her growing on milk into my sump she shed her zooxanthellae :sad:

I have her under a section where she is getting 400 par of led lighting and been feeding her twice a week with mysids, clam, silversides etc......but she is still shrinking.........

Is there anyway i can give her another boost of zooxanthellae? would placing a new BTA adjacent her help any? I am gutted that i just cant get her back to her former glory - and she has been with me longer than the wife!
 
Give it time,keep it fed,and keep it under good lighting.The color should come back.
