[michaelg]

1. bleached flower anenome
2. porites or montipora
3. echinopora mammiformis (the one in the back, can tell on the one up front).
4. palyotha or zoanthids

You scored some nice corals with that tank.

 

[michaelg]

[jallard]

If I had to i.d. them I would say they are corals? Do I win a prize? Huh? Huh? Do I? Do I?

Actualy teh flower anemone is not necessarily bleached. I've had several pure white ones live in my tanks for years, and seen them as such in the wild.

Several of these corals are showing signs of bleaching, the zooanthids for example.

 

[jallard]

very low salinity level when i aquired it

Lugol's has helped my bleached corals. Try it but BE CAREFUL.

 

[jallard]

made by kent marine,

its a iodine solution. some use it as a coral dip, I guess its good for soft corals etc....

 

[jallard]

well I have read that a bleached coral will get better in time....is that right?

 

[michaelg]

yes, in many cases. It is just a matter of the zoaxanthallae reproducing and the coral keeping them.
