The fish are fine. The linned blenny is dead though, I think.

hmm strange. i doubt it could be the lights causing the crash. cause even corals can still utilize old bulbs even if the spectrum has shifted.

No idea then, I do see  rust coloured film growing on some of the rocks. Could that be a bacteria of some sort?

Yeah, just not as intense yet. Mine is more spread out than all in one spot like that. I tried to scrape it off the rock while doing a w/c but it doesnt move. Some was grwing on my GSP but I gt that off with a toothbrush.

 

 

WHAT IS IT??

I have no idea. That's in my tank. I have it in a few different places. Some in high light and some in the low light. Are your corals bleached out? Not quite as puffy as they should be?

So the new bulbs came in! I ordered two sets of each bulb (4 bulbs), and only got 3! But they did undercharge me so I'm not sure yet if I'll contact the site and still complain. The invoice they sent to my email said  should have gotten 4 bulbs, but they only charged me for 3 on my mastercard.

 

 

WISH ME LUCK! Hopefully the tank starts to turn around! There is a little tissue left on the FS so if it was the lights hopefully the FS will regrow.
