Kenya tree bleaching i think?

when you say its reproducing is that even when its all shriveled up cause rite now mine is all shriveled up and it looks like there is nothing left of it just little pieces on the rock???

 

this sounds pretty cool

 

+1 on the reproducing. This is exactly what they do when they are trying to spread. Like previously mentioned, place them around your rock work for more individuals colonies and they will grow like weeds.;D

 

Yea, when I first bought the 3inch frag they were as good as they look now but when I put him in the tank he turned a milky white and shriveled up, something about changing it water is what the fish store told me but eh it is pretty much acclimating to your tank conditions. It was 2 weeks before he even opened up then after about a month he started pinching off his branches and I placed the branches all around the rock work to make a kenya tree forest and then they all turned milky white and opened up again bigger than ever and its kind of a rinse repeat cycle, I am good with the amount of trees I have now but the resident of the kenya tree forest a blue spotted jawfish is getting run out of his home by the trees here pretty soon and I will start selling 3'' frags or more for some money. They are as stated before hard to kill off and grow like weeds so choose a spot carefully.

 

Thank you guys once again for all your help i was ready to toss it in the the trash i just had to b reassurred that i wasnt leaving a dead frag in my tank lol

 

ok back to my kenya trees, its bleached for sure, how long would it take for it to color back up, and what do i do?

 

I wish I had know this when I had one... I turned purple and was covered with goo... I figured it was melting and tossed it :/
