Does it look like this

Yes, but more muted.

I mean. I know they’re not for the inexperienced but the only way to become experienced is trying and trying again and maintaining tank stability… I should talk but I’m in same spot as you.

I just want to be great w/ acros and see them thrive. I mean I want that with every coral...

 

[DJF]

Why are acros so hard to keep. My Marvin the martian was great till I added more flow and just straight RTN and same with bubble gum digi.... so sad. Others are doing ok

If it was easy they wouldn’t call it reefing, it would be “keeping”.

It's a multitude of things but a mature biome goes a long way. Don't get it twisted though...there will always be a random loss in the acro game....sometimes it's for reasons unknown to us yet

Learning after every loss that's for sure!

It took me several times before i could get acros to stay alive let alone do well grow. Biggest thing for me has been stable alk the last few month. Switched to AFR from dosing kalk in ato

 

[jpshoemaker46]

Well some other corals are doing pretty well

I do have AFR but my alk has been high lately around 9.5ish and I did a water change now at 8.8 so we will see

I fed my plate coral caviar for the first time last night.
I have not seen it do this. I think this means he liked it

8 hours later, still inflated but starting to reduce back to normal

Noted! What sort of caviar?

 

[Peanut]

This is the best and craziest I’ve ever seen it. I see it every day. This time I was taken back and had to just stare for a few minutes. It was bigger than I’ve ever seen it and a perfect dome shape. I didn’t even know it can do this. Maybe from my new coral food?

I'm going to blame having just gotten home and being asleep on my feet

 

[SBB Corals]

@SBB Corals so you have any knowledge on how to get plate corals to bud? Any secrets? I know the diaseris plates split on their own, but these guys grow tiny buds that fall off. Any idea how to trigger that or speed it up ?

I honestly don't alot of time when they die they grow back into baby buds
