I lost the coral beauty and bi colour doty back and all hammer corals in February with a bacterial bloom and KH drop one morning was to late to save them tried water change and all could think to do. One of those things that break your heart and want to stop the hobby. Took me a few weeks to pickup the pieces and recover what's left but in the end you learn and start again. Now I do things differently and better ,,

How's the Led working for you? How many watts are those lights?
Pretty good they are running over two years now they are the 3W Bridgelux LED's.
 
More for acclamation as the tank they came from was very dark and used mostly blue LED's at the shop. But they seem to be happy with the location they are in. Will move them later.
 
24 December's status. Have a great festive season

So the tank inmates and corals went over to the RSM 250 and this tank was left with the water, sand and a rock. Water change cycle was remove 10 Lt water and replace with water from the RSM 250 that receive the new water. Cleaning the glass but has not scraped the Coralline algae at all.
