Is this Acro going to make it?

[ducktales]

Just got this ORA Pearlberry today. Can it recover? Is this RTN?

Hard to tell in a blue pic, but it does look like it is missing tissue.

If it is RTN, there is not much you can do. You can try to frag off a good piece. You have to do it above the lost tissue. This is still not a guarantee.

lol, that's actually with all lights on. but yea, i'm not sure if ti came like that or became like that after the revive dip.

Cut the tips and hope. I would definately say it's a goner. Sorry.

 

[buy_baff]

Cut the tips you might be able to save a little. Yes it is RTN

what a shame. nice looking pearlberry frag. cut and hope.

 

[ducktales]

sucks, might think it's revive dip that's causing this. lost this and a lokani already. the rest of my other frags are doing fine though. any other dips to recommend?

 

[john90009]

revive is a good did people will say coral rx is good to but most likely they same chemicals. did you have it in there longer or a stronger dose? I had one coral act bad out of all the frags i dipped and it was a delicate coral that was in the solution for alittle bit more then it should have been.

 

[ducktales]

yea, think the dosage was over a little bit but the rest of my acro's were fine, except this one.

 

[john90009]

yes, me and a few other reefers have notice that our were quiet sensatives to change while others will say theres is strong as an ox. i see the pearlberry super nice yet super sensative.

How long did you leave the coral in Revive for?

 

[ducktales]

7-8 minutes. i didn't do the recommended 15 minutes. i think next time, 3-4 minutes at regular dosage would suffice.

edit:

I fragged off above the part that clearly had dead tissue. Did I make the right cut? Or should I cut some more?

 

[ducktales]

double post

I run my new acros in revive for 25 minutes and haven't lost one yet ( knock on wood) . I do double up on my zeo additive regimen after they go in the display, which seems to help them recover from the trauma more quickly.

Sorry about your acro. Doesn't look good.

 

[john90009]

idk on revives directions it says a few minutes...... idk why people sit the coral in there for long.

 

[sedor]

ReVive wouldn't have done that to the acro in such a short amount of time. Something is going on in your tank that it doesn't like. I hate to say this but I bet in the morning its bone white

 

[Dustin1300]

Personally, I'd go further up the tip. Good luck

 

[ducktales]

It looked better in person, lol. The picture really put it into perspective.

doesn't look like it'll make it. sorry to say
