One Happy Reefer
Got into the office at about 9 am. As always I greet the reef and fish.
Fed the reef n fish around 10 am
Left to do some rounds at the hospital at 1pm
Back to the office at 3pm, to see this;
About 40% of the colony has lost its tissue.
Just below the purple stylo you can also see a sunset monti stressed and browning out;
Between patients I tested;
Ca 420
Alk 7.7
Mg 1330
Phos 0.02
Sp Gr 1.026
Temp 78.9
Bio pellets reactor; functioning
Skimmers; functioning
Dosing has been inconsistent over the last two week (another story), this is the most likely culprit
Made fresh Ca, ALk, and Mg. Dosed appropiately.
The last patient left its 6pm. It appears that whatever caused this rapid tissue dehisence has slowed down. I called OPG and issued a reef emergency. OPG's hawk eyes verified, No redbugs, No AEFW, NO bugs of any type.
It didn't fit coming out of my hood. we had to lift the hood up (opening only 6") The colony is about 9"
Saved frags
Dead coral
I threw all the frags into the frag tank. Now sit and wait to see how many of the frags survived.
Thank you OzoneParkGuy for coming over and helping me over the next three hours.
