This is what's so frustrating about this hobby!!! Good luck buddy lots of ups and downs with sps once u get tank dialed in again and wait few months it will be back to its prime !
Just takes 1 day for whole tank to start looking like crap and months for it to recover !! One u see new encrusting growth again u should be good!!

Sorry Duke ... but it doesn't look like anything even happened to your tank! I was expecting a MASSIVE fail. :D lol.

The tank looks fantastic regardless of what happened. Now to rebuild the Acro collection. ;)

Nice rebound Duke. Did you ever figure out what was killing your acros? I know you had a salinity problem at first but it seemed that something else was causing problems later on.

Still have no idea. Maybe bacteria maybe alk swings,salinity? Cant figure it out. Still have some acros not totally gone but some of my favorites are. Carls candlelight,pearlberry,red planet colony. But some other favorites i still have Joe the coral,shades of fall,blue-green tort. Didnt put them in the DT i have my 10 acros in my frag tank. Going to upgrade so not going to place them in till i do

All how the cards fall :) I know by the pics you cant see much but if you saw my tank before and after in person you would see. Got so bad i last my colony of green slimer. That guy could be left out for a week and i wouldnt die LOL
