hope you don't loose any more stuff, this summer has been ruff for a lot of reefers I've been hearing.
good luck funky

well all my other fish pulled through it ok.
i think the FD will klive too, i noticed that one of my Zoos detached and went to a other peace oif LR..?
i think my suncorel has had it though :(
its losing color at the base, should i leave it in there to see if it makes it?
or should i take it out?
thanks guys hope you dont have a heat wave like this one

Just watch it close funky, if it starts shedding it's flesh I would look at taking it out.

Oh this year has been a struggle to keep things on optimal temp. I've managed to keep mine with the fans and shorter photoperiod 4-6 hrs. at a stable, hold on.... 84.5-85.5 F, oh yes I'm pushing the boundaries of coral soup, but they're all fine and good.
Multiples of Saddness...thats too bad, sorry to hear about the misfortune. Hopefully things will work out okay for the rest of your critters
