I give up! Birds Nest & I don't mix...

[Seamazter]

This is good news greg, the birdsnest is a begginer coral, now that your more advanced its telling you this that its time to move along to more expensive frags by dieing in your tank.
Take it as a good sign that your tank is just too advanced for such a begginer coral.

Hope u see my coment as a joke, and dont think im being at all serrious.

I killed off some of mine with having too much flow on it. Just a thought.

A thought to ponder.

something strange. I grow the green bird's nest like nobody's business. Had several colonies the size of volleyballs. However, I CAN NOT grow pink bird's nest, under any circumstances. It's the only coral I can't grow. Very strange, very annoying

Best thing with birdsnest is to start it lower in the tank and than move it up slowly. did the same for my 3 frags and my colony i left it where it is mid tank. Flow has never been an issue but light has. my first try with green birdnest was a complete failure. just a thought. but everyone has that one coral that has issues in their tank, for me it was monti's for the longest time

This is what mine look like now as of today:






Here are the other frags I got the same day:

well....Seriatopora are not acropora, so dont assume they will behave the same way.....now that I ve the pics, I think Laurier hit the nail on the head.....kinda looks like tip burn from light (or possibly flow too)

WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT BEGINNER CORAL............................................. ...

Just poking at you, smart ass.

I don't understand though because it doesn't matter wht I put in my tank for a coral they do great. I have a Baby Blue Milli frag & purple acro frag doing great. Blue tip acro & A.Humis colonie doing great not to mention the anem's Clams Torch Long Tent plate. I just don't get it.

Even a non photosynthetic gorgonian is doing good
