Win! All of the internet lied about my blue velvet nudis. They’re way hardier than the literature says. Found two in my sump that went missing over a week ago. One made it down the gutter, made its way next to one of my returns (set at highest setting), got blown into my fuge (high flow w/ rolling ball of chaeto) and still managed to survive. Got to love them. [emoji3059]

Huge momma candy crush with several shades of green and now even yellow. Not a wild import. All 5 babies are plain Jane solid orange. Apparently green takes forever to develop. Almost like having an aged bottle of wine.

very nice, how big is that Frankenstein?

Bubbalicious! Lol. She’s 5-6in now. Came in 4 in or so a couple months ago. They grow very quickly if you spot feed.

I call that one my second ugliest bubbs. The nicest one is in that red bowl behind it.

My shrooms have not been doing well the past few weeks. Not sure whats going on. They're melting, few are bleaching out. I moved them so it may be too much light.

What shrooms do you have? Params? What did you change?

It is specifically these shrooms. My hairy mushrooms and a few others that I didnt move dont seem to be affected. The only thing I changed on these 4 colonies (1 not pictured) was location. Of course this changed the flow and PAR, but only minimally. Alk is 8, Ph is 0, Ca is 420, Mg 1320, Nitrate is 45 (which has been the norm for the past several months hence my algae issue), SG is 1.025

I will say however that my Sand Dollar and Welsoni aren't happy at the moment either. The Sand dollar's polyps are retracted and the Welsoni is bleaching now too.

I will post some current pics later tonight.
