It is looking more like, if you want great coral growth and fabulous colour then you have to move to POWELL RIVER.

Marie even on a bad day your tank is one of the BEST.

There's lots to do in Powell River: Watch the smoke from the stacks at the Paper Mill dissipate into the air, watch the tide come in and go out and come in and go out......

As a metaphor for carefully selecting single out of many !

Things aren't as disastrous as they could of been, corals appear to be going back to normal colouring and the tissue has stopped receding.
From a distance things look pretty good








There is a bad cyano outbreak but I've dealt with that before

Up close things aren't all rosy
My superman digitata now looks like an ordinary orange digi. There isn't even a hint of blue anywhere


Every tip on this coral has tissue recession


My poor pearlberry acro


all the brown tips are dead coral skeleton

Even at this darkest hour your tank still looks a damn spot better than mine, I am sure you will get things straightened out.

no more room for corals, and your corals aren't doin to well.
you should get a new reactor.
but if you get a new reactor you need a new sump.
and if you need a new sump might as well get a new skimmer.
and if your getting a new skimmer, you might as well...
UPGRADE!
