need help

[vitaldefect001]

recently i swiched out my old 75g with a RR75 gallon
and today i noticed that some of my acro's are RTN/STN ing....

mostly from the base up and on select branches....

i dont really know the difference between the two...
but the skin looks missing or pealing...

everything is the same, except the placement of the corals...

is there anything i can do...

probably half of my corals are acting differntly...

but looked wonderful the last few nights

I don't have an answer but I have some questions.

How much new water did you use?

did you transfer the old sand to the new tank?

did you shake out the rock real good?

How long ago did you switch the tanks?

Any other changes, skimmer, lights, ect. ?

Moving a whole aquarium full of sensitive corals and anemones can cause major problems. (You already know I just went through the same thing.)
Make sure water parameters are on the money and run carbon.
Saying a prayer might help, as well. Good luck.

RTN is rapid tissue necrosis and will happen very fast.. the whole coral is usually affacted and is gone in a day or two.. you should frag above the dead or dying tissue and then glue the frag a little above the living base just to seal it off.. hopefully that will stop the RTN.. STN is slow tissue necrosis.. this will happen gradually and will take awhile to completely die.. some times it only dies to a certain point then stops.. but the same measures should be taken .. frag and glue above the living tissue.. frag as much as you have too, RTN, STN will usually affect the whole colony, maybe you can save some of the colony this way..HTH..

only used 4 gallons of new, as i did water changes ahead of time, knowing i was going to need some extra, with the new sump...

had no sand in the old tank, and none in this tank....

i did shake off the rocks in a 5 gallon bucket

swiched the tanks


lights and all the equipment are the same, except the addition of a filter bag

sound like you did everything you should have...

do you have good flow for the sps?

I would do another 20% water change due to the die off..

seio 880 and seio 620, and the flow from the return pump wish is around 700gph
