Chapter 1: IM Nuvo40

I love torches too but the prices are ridiculous I can’t even afford a tentacle of a yellow torch, lol. Bounce Mushrooms gross me out. Zoas are infinite...I’m not sure how or why you would want to try to collect a billion varieties of zoas. And gonis seem to do well in my tank.
If I had to guess though. I think the next fad coral will be cloves
 
Yeh, I haven't found or seen any shorts that really knock my socks off.
Mediums are pretty nice but the longs are the best.

I've loved gonis well before torches and before the hype but now everybody wants them.
Its a double edged sword - more varieties are popping up but so are prices. And unfortunately, the name game.

no Goni out there even comes close to the Trix!!

Xenia has jumped the plug...I guess I’m doomed now lol. I think it’s beautiful but may change my mind if it takes over the tank

Dragon soul has been pouting the past few days...I hope it’s splitting or constipated and not dying.
From my relatively limited experience, it seems that every once in awhile a coral scrunches up for a few days and then emerges with an explosion in growth. Or doesn’t emerge and dies.

Elegance still looks like shit but seems to be doing well. It’s closed up on some reef roids

Yeh it sucks. The NYK and green torch seem ok.
But the neon green torch has been looking deflated for a few days - I’m currently dipping it in Seachem Reef Dip since none of the LFS near me has Lugals or Tropic Marin.

I also did a small water change and changed out carbon and gfo

Fingers crossed

Damn bro. Sorry to see this. I hope the other recovers. My experience has been poor once they start down that path.
