Though a water change might help the polyps to retract. Lol

you be nice too there buddy:mrgreen:



everyone...be nice...geesh :P

bahahhaahaha thanks man. took long enough

i knew that was coming lol was just wondering who was gonna say it lol :)


see marko were actually all having a bit of fun , if your issue was a bad problem we would be here to help i guarantee it:)

but the polyp extension is a good thing its a sign the millie is happy, as for color like i said sometimes the base is nicer then the polyps, if you like the base color better id swap out the millie for something with the colors you do like:) or keep the millie and just add another:)

Marko are you running radions

Ai sols.

100% on both blues and 80% white

Just a thought, your tank is what 180g? Maybe the 2 sols aren't enough anymore and the milli is reaching for more light? Just a thought. I know I now have my sol at 85% on my tank (35g) my bonsais color is coming back finally. I think it was a light issue for me cause my one coral(dont laugh) salty nuts had polyps out so much it just looked like a fuzz ball, after turning the lights up slowly they've retracted slightly.

I have the same problem, can't see the pink coral because it's furry with blue-green polyp...anoying not to see the color but I prefer healthy coral than seing the color underneat.

I like my polyps that way, healthy and growing.

On another note, I stopped the Red Sea Reef Energy A and B because that really affected the extention of my polyps...so you might want to try it. Mine went in the garbage.

Copper did a great job as well on the polyps retraction.

Coral when I got it:

I have 4 sols

Actually out of 4 tanks I only have one with some hair algae in it. The HA is in my fowlr tank. Years ago I bought live rock from a guy who was selling it for $1 per pound. He admitted that he was selling so cheap because it was covered in HA and he had done everything to get rid of it but nothing worked for him. Basically he was sick of fighting with it and was going to start over with new rock which is why I got a great deal for it. I figured I could deal with having HA in a fowlr system in order to get cheap rock so I bought it. Unfortunately I've been battling with it myself ever since. I've had rabbitfish get rid of it but then as they got larger my king angel got too mean to them for them to stay in that tank and the HA came back. Now I have a small kole tang that has been working at clearing up the HA, best part is my king angel has no interest in him and he won't get to a size big enough for the king to start to pick on him.

BTW I didn't offer my experience I just tried to explain why Levi said what he said 'cause it seemed like you didn't understand what he was getting at.

Thanks Denny, I still have the mushroom rocks unfortunately when I re-aquascaped my fowlr tank most of the mushroom rocks ended up on the bottom or towards the back of the tank where you can't see them.
