Thanks, I don't dose the iodine. I got it from a guy who was breaking down his tank and he gave me all his supplements with the livestock I bought from him. I totally agree with you about not dosing anything that you can't test

Definitely not, I don't dose anything that I can't test for

In post #9 he says he has some. My initial thought was why would he have bought it if he wasn't dosing it. Of course later he says it was given to him.

SOOOO now who was it that celebrated too hard for the holidays Deb?????? Hehehehehe

So took it to the LFS and had it cut above the bleached area and we tried to keep it in tact as possible. It did break up and I saved a couple big pieces, traded the LFS for other acro frags, and have some for sell. He did confirm that it was not STN or RTN mainly because there was no flesh coming off just bleaching. Thank you all for your help and input!

Yes especially with a nice colony like that, I would have been very disappointed to lose it
