Darn, the front is starting to go now

But you know what... It's still super bright and colorful. Most pics I see, all the stripes on the discs are gone and the tentacles look all washy. Mine still has bright flourescent green stripes on the body/discs and bright purple tips... Waaaiiinnn...

I just want to sit and whine about it!

I'm trying to think of where I could place the elegance... Seems like so many people have tried so many things. Bill; how is that elegance doing now?

Default elegance

I kept that elegance for about 10 years and it grew to basketball size when fully extended; but I had to sell it cause I couldn't fit anything else in the tank.

Keep in mind that what worked for me may not necessarily work for you. But if the coral is starting to receed, this may be it's only chance.

And it's looking quite a bit worse; but still hanging on.. Still closes up fast to eat food that lands on it.

I'm not sure what to think/do.

Guess we will see.

Mine is still ticking, believe it or not I think it's actually improving. I feed it once a week and it eats.

However I wish it would just either die or come back to life.. lol

Maybe try feeding it more than once a week? maybe try for a week like every day or every other day and see if that helps or changes it at all?

just an idea
