Dying scolymia...

Hello! I saw this dying scoly at my LFS and I Want to recover it.
Do you think it's possible? Thanks!

It's definitely possible IMO, but at what price? If it's pretty cheap go for it. GL.

Scolymia's are stronger than I thought. I forgot to plug in my thermostadt one day after a water change, and I found my tank at 72 degree. While the Scoly looked stressed, it jumped right back when I raised the temp. I target fed it some LPS food, and now it's fine.

I was thinkink of buying the scold. It has a complete mouth and I think i could target feed it. But Scolys here are very expensive.

You could fly to America, take a vacation, buy a scoly, fly home!
