Scolymia HELP!!

[ckusnierek]

I have this awesome aussie scoly and over the last few weeks it has bebun bleaching. I noticed tonnight the mount seems to be gaping (for lack of a better term)

Looking thru the mount I can see the skelton inside.

I have tried to feed many times (mysis w/selcon) I have never seen feeding tenticals.


Should I just shoot the mysis into it's mouth?

ANY ONE?

I did get a few misys in it last night. I just set them by it's mouth and they were gone in 5 mins.

I aslo set a small silverside in it last night but it was still there this am

How is it looking tonight?

If it ate the mysis then I would be tempted to keep feeding it that, but I do not know much about this particular coral either.

Best of luck with it.

If you don't already, try Target Feding ,1-2 hours after the lights are off also turn off the pumps at that time as well, except for the return.

When it's time to feed ,then turn off the return pump, and target feed with the actinics on for a few minutes, then turn off the light's

After about ten minutes turn on the return pump.

After another 10 minutes turn on all water circulation. and maybe look at them with the actinics or a flashlight to see if they ate it.

You can try also Nutramar OVA ( Prawn roe) My acan's seem to love it and I freeze it and break it up and use it minimumally like rotifers it can pollute the tank if not eaten !

Good luck
