Wow, I would be more than crying, if I lost those... That AEFW scares the crap out of me...

Haven't lost any really expensive ones,... yet.

But was a little peeved when overnight I lost an ice blue favia when my sun coral got too close, It was 2 inches away, but not enough. In the morning, one of the sun coral polyps was still stretched way over, like it was trying to devour it.

And I lost a nice orange chalice just a couple days after I bought it. I had it too high, and looked a little bleached after the first day. After the second day, started seeing some skeleton sticking through, and by the third, just skeleton left, even though I moved it down the day before.

I thought a valida acro frag died that I got from Rich. Looked dead for a couple months (but I didn't throw it out). And then saw a polyp appear, and then another, and another, and now it's doing nicely, and coloring up, too.

But no 2 or 300 dollar corals for me,... yet. Sure would hate to lose one of those.

Solutions are easy. The real difficulty lies in discovering the problem.
