It's strange how coralline can come on strong then fade away then come back. I've recently had a cycle like that, but it was because I had added so many corals that I needed to start dosing calcium. Once I did, the coralline made a come back.
No trees were harmed in the writing of this post. However, several electrons were GREATLY inconvenienced.

Let me say.... BUY A REFRACTOMETER! NO IF ANDS OR BUTS! BUY ONE! I got mine on ebay. 30$ shipped. My salt is 1.028.... hydrometer says 1.025

Also, I need to take some pics of the corals my uncle gave me last weekend. a white tip acro frag, a blue tip acro frag, some little monti pieces that broke off his during his move, some little white xenias, random green mushroom and another SPS hopefully someone can help me figure out what it is.
