after being fed up with the tank, which was over ran with palys and mushrooms. I've decided to rescape. I'm bleaching the comprimised rock in a vat outside and have been playing with the "Life rock" shapes. I have not been disappointed. I will finish the aquascape after the rock has been bleached but here is the before and after so far let me know what you think.
Thanks to jjoose and reeferintraining to answering alot of questions for me over the last couple of weeks. I believe i narrowed my problem down to chemical warefare, toxins being built up from all of the competition. after running copious amounts of carbon the sps polyps started extening.
i had a traditional rock wall. with no flow behind it. ticking time bomb and am switching it out for an open concept. Im glad i did as there was alot of detritus piled up behind the rock.
