For me, most (95% plus) live at least 1-3 months. But if you were to go out a year, I would say it’s more like a 60% success rate- anyone else with this experience?
In my current tank I lost 4-5 acan colonies (at least 1k$) I had for about 5 months doing great until a faulty alk reagent I had... I have had other corals fall and get stung and not recover, others look great for 6 months or so then slowly wither away.... I still have a lot I started with but I think it’s easy to forget or explain away some of the pieces that die (like do my acan losses not count? Of course they do they died!) maybe we don’t want to feel bad or admit to ourselves we are loosing corals ($) ?
