I ordered some corals online, it was attempted delivery but my doorbell didn't work(it's one of those wireless types) so I had my dad pick it up much later at the Fedex location around 6pm. I had to go to work so I told him to pick up the package and put them in my tank. Well one of my acros is bone white! could it possibly come back? It was a beautiful Sunset acro(green). How could it had RTN'd so fast! my other coral, a ATL red acro looks ok.
 
That really sucks big time! To top it off my pink hammer isn't looking hot either. Does anyone know the cause of such RTN? Not enough light, stress, low water temp and etc for to long of a period? I'm thinking it was the long period it was in the box for. I guess the heat packs didn't last that long and the package got super cold.
 
It could be. My pink hammer looks like it's going to make it. I moved it to the sand and I'll see how it goes. I just don't have luck with SPS. Especially since I've been so busy. I'm going to hold off on all SPS purchases until I get my tank in order. My other SPS that I bought from reefkoi isn't looking so hot either now. I think it might be the next one to go.:(
