Abarger16 Posted December 8, 2022 Share Posted December 8, 2022 Refactometer was out of calibration and I did a 30% water change and DT salinty dropped to 31ppm. I raised salinity back to 35ppm and my acan lords have both started having polyp bailout and my acan enchinata is receding. Is it worth trying to save the polyps that are bailing out they are still eating while unattached to their skeleton. And is this because I bottomed out my salinity?

LadAShark Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 (edited) If you manage to keep them in good conditions, and considering they're eating, they can regrow a skeleton. Treat them like a mushroom that's not attached to a rock: minimal flow, container of some sort, and something to grow onto. If you can do it without hurting it, putting it back onto its original skeleton should reduce the amount of work that it does. If they're eating, you should have a good shot at it. Whether it's "worth" it considering that is subjective, but I personally would try to save them. In the future, try not to let the downswing happen, but more importantly, don't raise it back up so fast either. It's a bigger shock going up than down.
