SPS Coral ForumI am having a tough time with RTN in my community reef tank. My softies and LPS seem to thrive. Several of my SPS seem to do well for a few weeks and then I can see it start to form with bleaching and loss of tissue from the bottom spreading rapidly to the top. I have been dipping my new...

Large SystemsThe more I read the more lost I am becoming...how do you know what to get? It doesn't seem like most places are sizing to the tank volume, but beside that I guess my real question is if you can go smaller and if you do- does it just take more time? When I read about a media like rowaphos, well...

SPS Coral ForumI've had this a week, it's been doing fine. I have other sps corals, all doing wonderful. But I just noticed today that it's flaking off at the base. Any ideas what this could be from? I had a powerhead hitting it, that I've now moved. Could that have caused it to flake off like that? And...

Not really sure what caused it at this point... but was thinking of trying a couple more frags and see...

General Reef DiscussionOk, I'm taking a poll About RTN (rapid tissue necrosis). I recently read that there is some evidence that RTN can be linked to mixed reef tanks (SPS and softies), but that skimming and carbon may help reduce the risk of RTN. So I'm asking those who may have experianced RTN questions about it.

Tank SpecsI have more than one tank, will add others later. Pardon the mess - fighting with it all the time. While I'm able to keep most of corals and filter-feeders alive and well, I have to change setups (and add the new nano-tanks) to fit their needs, not set the tank and fill it with animals who will...

TCMASMilli! The pics are not so good, hopefully someone will be able to chime in... This is the only coral that seems to be affected. I can post system specs later if needed. Then only change I have done lately is removed the carbon from the system. (GF ball valve broke!) Thanks, Kevin
