Hi: For what it's worth, I would not use bleach to clean the coral. If it has really been out of the water for a year, you are probably very safe. A quick dunk in some boiling water should kill anything (terrestrial) from getting into the tank via the dead coral. My partner and I commonly bring...

I've read some good advice here, but finding a decent source for the corals has been most important for me. Having found that source, and educating myself about all corals I buy, I've had a great deal of luck with them since I got started six months ago. And the great thing is that you can...
