Reporting such things to staff might be a good idea. Then staff can get hostile too :)

Once the base is sufficiently attached, they don't tend to grow much more. I have seen some overly encrust, but that, IMO, is not typical. My largest colonies have less than a 2" base.

SPS generally need to touch to cause damage. Or really really close. They will often avoid each other on their own though, pretty smart for fuzzy stick animals.

My philosophy is if the corals are covered in water, it's all good :) Pruning to prevent fighting is about all that's needed.

I've done the Vancouver run and kept frags in a cooler for 2 days with a heater and powerhead. I used a inverter for power in the car. No problems at all.

Ya, agreed, not sure what to test for. If it passes visual, it's likely good enough. I didn't test anything.

At least you got to see who or what did it :) If I'd seen the clam doing it, I would have removed it to a bucket while it spawned, then return it afterwards. But waking up to it kind of leaves you...

I'm going to guess the clam, who set off the snails, maybe?? Not sure, just hope it doesn't happen again. Glad I had 50g of new water on hand this morning though :)

Looks like everything is back to normal. I can see things in the tank. Always a good sign :)

What people need to understand is that TDS doesn't equal bad. It's just a measure of total dissolved solids. Of course those DS's could be bad, we have no (easy) way to tell. Calgary for example,...

No, the only things that could spawn are the 3" clam and astrea snails. I'm sure it will be fine when I get home. Pretty sure, anyway :)

The Kelowna plant is one of the best in the world, and I've drank water out of the outflow. In fact, they were breeding trout in it last time I was there. But...what if something went horribly...

IMO, TDS isn't the debate. After you add salt, your TDS is through the roof. The concern, at least for me, is that with tap water, you don't know when it changes or potentially becomes contaminated...

Ultimately it's just a bunch of coral, so no point stressing about it. It will be good when I get home, or it won't.

One small one, not sure it's enough to cloud 200g of water. I guess it's possible. I thought maybe snails, but again, it's a lot of water for the amount of snails I have.

None. Just cloudy. Some corals sliming, but nothing dead that I can see.

Changed water, cleaned skimmer, and hoping I have a tank when I get home.
