I wasn't sure that any question was asked...

I've kept a branching horn coral for many 5+ years now. I've not found it to be particularly sensitive. I can attest to it's aggressive defences, though.

I had one outbreak of RTN that I caused by introducing a stag frag that was already dieing. As soon as I saw the horn coral beginning to show sign of RTN, it was completely fragged/dipped and transferred to the new tank in about 5 pieces. Since then all the pieces are doing fine.

I know that Doug has a crap ot of hard to easy SPs's in his tank. he does regular water changes and keeps his levels at par and I havent evr heard him say anything bad about his levels. I 'm lost thou Doug, after hearing that you lost my old Tri color that i got from gools about 12 months ago. you think that might be the reason the you lost the ti color from may be a toxic something that the horn coral release's.
