Yes, these shots are all post AEFW. I've been worm free for over 2.5 years now (Yes, I still let my paranoia get the best of me, and periodically go through the tank with a MJ1200, blasting my corals, looking for worms). Hang in there, recovery sucks, but eventually you'll be glad you stuck it out!

 

[Haksar]

Looking good Peter,glad all your corals recovered.

 

[SDguy]

Thanks but only a few of my corals survived the worms themselves, plus the QT, plus the meds, plus the transfer back... I'd have done things diffrently knowing then what I know now.

Cool shot I took tonight:

Love the dense growth pattern of your acros, of course stunning coloration as well.

 

[ctxmonitor]

Yes, after it fell, I glued it back...but poof! It was gone overnight Oh, sorry I wasn't clear...when I said clones I meant in the same picture as the hawkins... those two frags around it are no-name versions.

LOOOKING good Peter!

Thanks!

I don't have any pocci's in my tank any more. I had a really hard time keeping milles pretty before vodka dosing. Their big long polyps would always be brown, and obscure the skeletal color.

Very nice Peter :thumbsup:

Thanks. I can even see the branches starting to curve in the direction of the flow!

The colonies are actually not all that big, but I do have to trim once in a while... just to keep things from touching.
