It does get easier, you just have to take some serious preventive measures to prevent things from happening. When you slip up, thats when it hits the fan. On my end, I got lazy, and trusted the sources.

Like Tangy said, dipping does not kill eggs, you have to quarantine all corals and fish, and dip them 2 more times while in a QT. Its better to be extremely cautious then it is to have your display infested. I no longer have a display as a result.

Sorry to hear that Geek. I live below you in North GA. When you get things figured out I got a few frags for ya. You just got to let me know. Im not a mind reader and I would be happy to help out.

Calcium is high, PH 8.3 any ideas?

Thanks, Mike
Two / three weeks later, the area of montipora that had completely bleached out has color coming back!! (YEAH!!!)
It looks like it might recover!!
There is a small amount of algae on it,but it seems to be turning around.
Thanks for the advice, everyone.
