    Supicious Black Precipitate

    I think I have seen the black particle happen maybe two times over the years, most recently last year, mid summer. Would not have a clue as to its make up, but the grain size and "feel" sure felt gritty and was also suprised a skimmer could pick it up in its foam. Would think it was too heavy...

    Coral swelling

    Thanks Tony, as you can see by the site, I have far to much time on my hands when not face down over the reefs. Just got back not long ago and thanks to the locals who stomp around in the shallows, I came home with the exact species of acropora I have been looking for, entire left side of tank...

    Coral swelling

    Thanks! had thought of the possibility of a feeding strategy, but first thought was a complete swelling of all tissue (LPS) may have been some kind of "flushing" mechanism as either an attempt to be rid of an irritant (poor water quality) or as a way to take in nutrients. well, just a...

    Coral swelling

    Thanks, am really enjoying watching my gaimard corris wrasse (rusty) turn into its adult coloration, which is speeding up alot now. The acro growth just in the last month has been amazing also. Will be collecting more of the same type, have given up on the colored acro types since I refuse to...

    Acro Crab

    Sorry, have never gotten a good ID on this crab, it is an acropora hosting type which has been harmless to the coral.

    Coral swelling

    Was recently asked about a LPS coral that has swelled completely, and have had one lps type myself exhibit a "bubble" formation, where it seems the entire area has pulled free from the skeletal base just as if a water bubble had formed below it. I have read of this before but have forgotten...

    Supicious Black Precipitate

    Have seen that on occassion myself, although not related to a soft coral melt down (which may have been temperature driven?) While not knowing the exact cause (big help, hey) I had always assumed it was just a binding event between an organic and a metal element. Big question is also did one of...
