Rico,
How’s your porites coral, colt coral and sponge? I hope they’re recovering from whatever is making them ill.
Colt still hasnt opened yet. I think its toast. I put it in QT. Only time will tell.
The tree sponge fell apart. Literally. Luckily I had split it a while back and the remaining frag is doing exceptionally well. Has actually grown about 3/8" since the fragging.
Porites are doing great. I moved the LR with them down to the bottom of the tank and turned off one set of 10k pc's.(the only thing I could find about bleached out corals was too much light.) Seems to have been what they needed.

I llike the pic. Since you uploaded the pic to RAG you can simply paste the onsite link(from the particular gallery - bb code) It will have the IMG tags already in place.
Since we are in central florida I thought I would jump over to St.Petes to see the area where we will be collecting with Cuddle.
While walking on the beach at low tide I noticed a pink "thing" just under the surface of the water. Of course being curious I touched it and it felt kinda spongy. I thought what if I could get a small piece, I could take it back for my tank. Low and behold the sponge came up quite easily along with a chunk of LR.
I couldnt leave this poor creature to die so I bagged him up, along with about 10 gal of NSW so I could do wc's until I can get home. I know most will probably die off cause it got exposed to air but I think all in all there is alot still quite healthy.
Any ideas what it might be? I'm thinking some sort of sponge but not sure.
From viewing the first picture I would have to say it's definately the rare "Pregnant Wife Sponge".
It's my understanding that anyone that brings one of these into their household will be with child within 9 months.

Reco,
I'm it was too much light, sorry for the colt coral but you never know. What in Gods creation is that thing? It looks like a tongue attached to a rock.

Say it isn't so!!!! I've already got three!!! I think it is dying. It stinks really bad and I have changed the water twice daily. Maybe I'll just cut it off and keep the rock.

I'm still learning. I guess the colt was my latest victim.
