Who Gives A Fish Forums

Agree on no stress coat. Unnecessary chemicals. Cooler method better than bucket. Less sloshing.

I transported mine last month. Used a cooler with a lid to block light. Drilled small holes for air. Worked fine. Water was 78 degrees, same as tank. No issues.

I had a hydnophora that initially did well, but once I added more sps corals, it started to decline. Mine was actually one of the first corals I added to the tank. I'm thinking maybe the other corals are giving it a hard time, chemical warfare style. Adding more carbon might help, worth a shot.
