That seems a bit odd, usually epoxy only messes it up for hours not days. Anything else that could have changed?
There is a fairly common green fungia, that has a purple undertone and can shift between green and purple. I'm not sure what the reason is. I had...
Do you have a picture? From what you describe in your previous post, it almost sounds like cyanobacteria growing on it. This could also suggest...
Could be O2, idk. I just can't come up with an argument to convince myself that fish would be that much more sensitive to low O2, in our tanks, than...
Sorry to hear about your tank Los1980. The only problem with the O2 hypothesis is reefs apparently tend to be around 5m/L and hypoxia isn't defined...
Interesting. I've never had one go crazy after startup. Just after using epoxy or feeding food with too much gel binder. Usually this is obvious...
Good point, you never know, the timing, with the water change could be complete coincidental. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Seems to be a lot of overflowing skimmers today... Gel binder in frozen food is notorious for making skimmers go crazy. Sometimes the manufacture...
Also, may want to rule out the water. That is another likely cause. If you RO membrane is going or something. Or if you buy water from an LFS...

Also, have you done a water change with this salt, without this happening. Should rule out a contaminant in the salt itself....
Yeah, not much more you can do. If your not running GAC, you could or if you are, could add more. Most often, whatever it is, isn't toxic, but to...
+1 also, what is it made of? Many plastics aren't reef safe.
Certain substances can cause a protein skimmers to go crazy. Common substances include gel-binders in frozen food. Also, some epoxies are known to...
Pop-eye can also be caused by physical damage, such as nipping by another fish. From the other comments, these seems to be what's happening....
I think it's worth re-using sand if less than 2 years old. Assuming the tank has been well maintained. Sand does become a sink though and should...
Ah yes, very nice :)
Cool :) They really stretch out when moving around though. If you touch, or take it out of the water and it contracts, I'd bet it's probably only an...
Cool coral. I'm not sure what I'm looking for though. The only difference I see is the second one is "zoomed" in more and rotated about 30 degrees....
Huh? It sounds like you have a predator, not a disease.... What makes you think otherwise? Because you haven't mentioned it.
