![]() Haha, yeah, sure seems so. And maybe some people need their eyes checked, too...

![]() Just got back from Mexico after 9 days, and the fish and corals (except 1 frag) are all good. Parameters all stayed stable, and my dosing did not need adjusting. Glass needed a good cleaning. Only the upstairs tank had an auto feeder going, so the fish were all hungry and happy to see me.
Only casualty (maybe) is a Hawkins Echinata frag (yeah, had to be that one) that got knocked down and buried in the sand. I hadn't epoxied that one down because I was planning to move it later. I suspect one of my hermit crabs is to blame. Then my goby proceeded to bury it. I moved it to my frag rack for now and will see if it comes back to life. Looks a little green now, and no sign of polyp extension. I have a Foscam camera and my Apex controller set up so I could watch things remotely. Was always good to see some fish swimming around. I did get a little anxious when I saw the weather reports last week with that strong Arctic Outflow. Doesn't take much to get a power outage in my area of Langley. But happily it didn't happen. But sure is cold coming back home, after laying around the beach there, snorkeling, etc....

![]() This is what my Hawkins Echinata looks like now, after being buried in the sand while I was gone (not sure how long). Is it still alive, and will it recover? Looks a little green, and maybe some RTN at the base. No sign of any polyp extensions.

Would more or less light be good for it at this point in time? Right now, I have it near the back of the frag rack, so it is not getting too much light.

Take those with grain of salt since I am talking in terms of regular coral and have heard echinatas can be a bit tricky and they are deep water I believe?

![]() Well, my Hawkins Echinata is still alive. Thought it was going to RTN after being buried in the sand for several days. But looks like that has completely stopped, and not even STN. I think I see some polyps even trying to come out... So pretty happy with that so far.
![]() Traded for a Strawberry Shortcake frag yesterday. Barely a quarter inch sticking out of the plug, and probably the smallest frag I have ever had. But seems to be alive, and even some polyps showing. ![]()

![]() Another mystery coral. Anyone know what this is (besides acropora sp.)? Got this frag a few months ago and now branching out in all directions.

![]() Nope, got it from Kelly (007), but at the time, couldn't tell what it was.
