Saltfishlover Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 I have a purple tip hammer with 4 heads. This grew from one head. I have had it in the same place and under same light for a year. Yesterday I notice two heads have bleached tentacles near the mouth. I did water tests and phosphate is .04 nitrate is 5 Alk 8.5 salinity is 35 I really have not changed anything. Anyone have this happen before?

Thats happened to one of my branching splatter hammers after it was stung by my torch,I moved my torch and my hammer stayed closed for a bit and when it returned it was completely bleached. Transparent. But I've moved the torch, hammer.it thriving again but still a little bleached but has been getting its color back. Could be that it was stung at some time and those tentacles retracted for a bit. Id dip it to be safe and put it back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saltfishlover Posted September 25, 2021 Author Share Posted September 25, 2021 Ahh. You know what, that very well may be the issue. I did have a spatter next to it as well. I have moved my hammer and I'll see what happens next. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
