I have a pretty mixed reef. No crazy stuff, mostly classic corals. They all are growing fast, except one. All of my LPS (acanthestrea, cyphestrea, hammer, torchy frogspawny thing, candy canes, favia, and Duncan, chalice). All of them are growing adding new heads, new tissues spreading.
SPS, same story. Stylo, staghorn, monti undata & digitata, tricolor valida, all killing it. Measurable growth on a daily basis from all of them.
Softies, Zola’s, palys, and mushroom (yes singular, I’m not really a fan) zoas and palys are rapidly adding polyps; so fast I have decided they go in my pico so they don’t take over my mixed reef Nano. But that mushroom just sits no color change, no growth no nothing.
I’m not looking for an answer. I refuse to chase parameters or change my tank to better suit a mushroom when everything is growing and coloring nicely. Just a conversation starter.
what corals does your system struggle with?
