Red Dragon Frag Bleached Today

Dip, Dip, Dip and quarantine if you can....it's Russian Roulette for your tank if you don't.

I have had no luck with the Red Dragon. I've tried it three times from very reputable sources, including the Diver's Den version, and they came in happy and healthy only to RTN within a couple of weeks. Interestingly enough I have Jo's Golden Dragon, a red dragon with yellow polyps and yellow tips (this coral is soooo sicK ) and it is a trooper. It bleached out in quarantine, went through AEFW dips for 10 weeks and was reintroduced back into the tank. It is growing nicely and all colored up. I plan to try a pink Dragon tails if I can find one, or one of the purple ones...I think I am done with the original Red Dragon though.

Got any pics of the Golden Dragon? I've sure there are more than a few people that would ogle that and then pine after a frag!

Some of us do dip all of our frags including the red dragon, and have kept a frag alive. I think it is great that you have been successful avoiding pests and I applaud your keen observation. Pests are endemic in reefing and careful observation is just one part of prevention but to each his/her own.

That's a fine colony for me to aspire to, good sir.
