Is my toadstool and gsp cooked 🥲

(Before cleaning this toadstool to this white condition using the soft water flow, it released a huge thick brown jelly, and after cleaning, it has some small white holes like SPS bleach on it, my GSP also still doesnt open for 6 days already)

Talk about a heartbreak…. It’s been a couple months since I’ve made a post so hello again everyone! My and my wife bought a house and during the move we had to move 5, 90 gallon reef tanks. This is the before and after of my prize tank. I lost 90% of my corals. The first couple months after I almost gave up walked away this is all I have left. Thanks to a few people in the community we are SLOWLY coming back to life. When it gets tough do not give up!

I guess this is what they called as addiction.

My go-to reef shop just stock up even more morphs of torches. Couldn't do anything but bite the bait: bought 4 morphs in one go 🤣

Added Holy Grail Ultra, Holy Grail Rapunzel, NY Knicks, and Gold Dragonsoul.

(Some of them are still bleaching from the tanks change)

MBDA project on coral

Building an impactful MBDA project on coral bleaching and reef conservation. My goal is to Make complex science super accessible with engaging visuals, short explanations, and a live mini-tank display to spark real action among students, locals, and community groups. Mushroom corals are perfect for this they're hardy, vibrant, and show healthy polyp action vs. bleaching threats in a way photos can't match. A couple small "baby" frags even 1-2 polyps would turn my setup into a powerful, hands-on demo that stands out from typical presentations.

Im in Connecticut let me know if you are willing to support
