Swing Needle will be kept in my shelve as a reminder of cheap products does not mean good .

But strangely, my orange mushy grew double ( 5 inches across ) it's size since I transfered it from my old tank to this new tank ???

the pressures put on fish osmotic system will be increased therefore their immune system will be severely impacted... coral colour seems not to be at optimal (not radiant) and also in severe cases may lead to death of the organizm....impact on corals is not immediate... it may take days/weeks for the coral to show any sign of degeneration.. so its up to us to check daily /2 days once the salinity...

Samuelo i suspect your LS is already acclimitized to your condition... and high chances are that you are buying LS at its optimal condition.... what if one day you buy something thats not very healthy? lol

I guess it could be high salinity level that cause my new coral beauty purchased last weekend to died after 3 days in my tank.

Currently all my old corals seems fine, but it's the new additions seems a little stress .

Time to wip out my RO/DI unit and gradually remove salt water and add RO/DI water.
