i did just that, hanging them upside down yesterday and feeding them with zooplex twice a day. 2 corals have inflated back to health and the big one is on its way there. 2 other corals have been shredded to goo tissue by the tangs. my purple tang eats them! is it to do with both coming from the same area? ie. Red Sea and Hawaii?

oh forgot to mention. i went to, hopefully, my last trip to the LFS this year and bought stuff. i got meself a: 5 carnation corals 1 pink yellow brain 1 blue goniopora! 1 blue linckia 1 BT anemone green soes my plight currently is the dendro corals btw i also bought on an impulsive buy, a cleaner wrasse. *hides from flame*. the reason why i bought it was it ws harassed by the other kurzlinger wrasses. so i got one home and it covered itself with slime and acted dead. few hours later it swam around but this morning i found it again lying on the sandbed not breathing. is it playing dead or is it REALLY dead?

those smileys describe how im feeling right now.... i bought 5 carnation corals, knowing what they were and seeing them in full bloom in the LFS. but right after the transportation ordeal. some of them seemed to have melted and even shedded their fur. litter everywhere i bought 2 purples, 1 orange, 1 maroon and 1 white the white melted until it looked like a ragcloth the maroon melted and now seems to go south the orange shedded all its fur and now ###### in its unglory the 2 purples are holding their solid state but seemed to be dropping by the hour.

heat probs fixt. my chiller pump was too weak that my return pump overpowered easily. it seemed that the chilled H20 never got into the plumbing stream. added a more powerful pump and me tank is running 27-28 now.

OR 2. they are goners, bud...observe them wilt to coral goo. so the verdict is.....which one is it?

heat, such a hot issue.... recently my tank has been soaring to record temps of 31c !!! wats happening with my system? my chiller stays at 28c but show tank temp is 31C ive got a small pump running my chiller, shud i upgrade it to a more powerful one?

i'm piggybacking this thread having the same problem recently. my guess is lighting

my tank got bracing directly the same position my MH light shines. ill get a 3rd MH then

lets have a race!! the naso, the yellow and the purple going at it from corner to corner. the scopas had a bad start and was left eating sandtrails

took 50 odd shots to catch this blue critter...the purple tang about to escape from the shot while the naso pose for hers

the home trained naso now eats from the fingers and follows the food canister

mushroom flyover with the yellow tang cameo

took a 100 shots or so but only came up with a few decent ones...really had a hard time catching up with the turbo tangs!! aiyayay! first pic is the whole tank setup. not sure if anyone can see the details
