![]() Interestingly enough, I don't have any cyano or dinos on my sandbed it is all exclusively on the rocks and coral skeletons

![]() I was thinking more that perhaps you have more fauna in your sandbed that might have died off creating the problems. I don't know if I've ever treated with interceptor with a sandbed as previously I didn't seem to be able to keep SPS with a sandbed.
I have various patches of cyano that only occur on the rocks although when I had dinos they weren't picky about where they grew. I do find it odd, how the dinos (or whatever algae you showed in the photos) are growing on the little dead bits of some of your corals that are still living. Have you tried breaking those bits off? I suppose inevitably you would always have a bit of skeleton exposed that way.

I thought about trimming the exposed bits of skeleton but I didn't want to risk damaging more of the coral So far I've only had the one complete loss otherwise it's just some tips peeling and I'd like to keep it that way. Oh and not to frazzle your nerves worse or anything, my first interceptor treatment went without a hitch. It was after the second one that things began to slide downhill ![]() Last edited by marie; 01-06-2008 at 12:20 AM. |

![]() Other than killing off my cleaner shrimp and reducing my pods, about the only other negative I've noticed with Interceptor is seems to get a bit of a light dusting on diatoms on the glass.

![]() Yes I haven't had any problems either except for the death of a fromia star, I'm not sure if it was interceptor related but disappeared about the same time as I did a treatment. I didn't notice it missing until weeks later though.
