I don't know how it happened. I haven't got anything new lately except a fish and it came from a fish only tank. Last week I noticed a bleaching area on my Purple Rim Monti and a couple days ago the Monti was almost gone. So I fragged what was left and put the good frags into two different tanks. The bad frags I put in a barrel where I have live rock. Then today my son said, "Dad, what are these little white things in the live rock barrel. That is when we found the MEN. I read where Yellow Coris Wrsses eat them so I checked the tank that I had one in and sure enough, the Monti frags where fine and no MEN are seen. So I bought two more today for the other tanks. Hopeflly they will take care of them.

Does anyone else have a bleaching problem on your Monti's? If so, check for these....

They are only about 5mm long max.


Over the last several weeks I sold a lot of frags. I didn't see any in my frag tank until after I put the frags in there a few days ago. I hope I didn't infect anyone. :?
