Blasto problem

mgny · 01/28/2007, 02:09 PM

Lost 2 hardy blasto colonies that i had for years in my 180. It came on a piece of liverock and grew very well for years. The interesting thing was they were on opposite ends of the tank which made me think a predator could be causing it. I have other colonies in the tank which seemed fine for a few weeks after the first two died but seemed stressed the last 2 days. The other brains acans, micros stonies etc seem fine. Gonna look real close at night for preds. Anyone experience a similar problem with their blastos? Thanks Mike
