Unfortunately, I have no advice, just thought I'd chime in my experience. A number of years ago, I disrupted a pocket of hydrogen sulfide in my reef and didn't realize the damage I'd done until waking up the next morning to find all fish and most inverts dead. A few of the corals looked a bit...

Yeah, as long as the temp isn't fluctuating too much, I don't think 82 is a concern. But as someone who once had to buy a second window unit just to keep my tank below 90 (that's right, got all the way up to 92 one day with out doing any visible damage), I would suggest fans, fans, and more...

Oops. By close up, I didn't mean zoom in more, just asking for a photo of the polyps closed up as a closed up goni looks different from closed up zooanthids. Make it retract.

No, anybody can read. Thanks for moving this to a sticky. So far we've already raised over $1200!!! Fantastic response. Those of you in aquarium societies, please pass along to your fellow members. This is an excellent opportunity for hobbyists to have a REAL impact on diminishing cyanide...

Hope it's not too late... I agree with Reefrunner. I wouldn't take it out of the tank. A little bit of dying xenia won't affect anything and it's AMAZING what can grow back out of a tiny little smudge of tissue. And 45 min. is certainly NOT an issue. Changing parameters can be, however...

Wow. That's a tough one. For starters, the link you posted is definitely a goniopora. But something about this just doesn't look like a goni to me. And the fact that it's ON a rock make me much more inclined to go with zooanthid. But...I wouldn't rule out Turbinaria peltata either as it can...

Sorry, I should have given a more detailed description. I don't think it's a Pseudoplexaura, Plexaurella, or Plexaura sp. for a couple of reasons. (1) I believe all gorg. in these two genuses have more retractile polyps. That's the oddest thing about this one. The polyps do retract...but...

I'd say almost definitely capnella...especially with the hint of green. And the kind of wrinkled looking stalk looks very much like a capnella that just needs a little time in a good spot to really beef up. Is it kind of firm like a capnella?

Curious if anyone has ever seen this white gorgonian before. When it first came in, I thought it was somehow bleached or something, but I've had it for about 6 months now, and just fragged it into 5 this size which are all doing really well. I've never seen anything like it before or since.
