In the past 3 days I have lost a small acro frag, and several branches of another acro colony are dying off. A few pics are below of this one.
The only other coral in the tank that is not doing well is a large green birdnest that has been deteriorating for the past few months.
I cannot see any bugs but I have a hunch from reading and seeing pictures of others' affected acros that I have them.
cal 450
mag 1240
dkh 10
sal 1.025
temp 79-81
ph 7.9-8.2
phos 0
nitrates/nitrites - not tested
I guess what I am looking for is some advice on how to determine if I have bugs. Is the only way to determine is to actually see them?
TWO DAYS AGO, notice back branch starting to bleach on this one. Notice base is bleached too.
LAST NIGHT, bleach has spread more
Im dizzy from looking at these with a flashlight, I almost trick myself into seeing little dots I think. Ideas?
thanks
