|  long tentacled anemone
I have had a lta for 6 months or better, was doing GREAT, hosting a false perc. I had a GHA outbreak, and now he is not doing good at all. he is all closed up and in a ball, the clowns dont even visit any more, any guesses, the perameters are all good. BTW the reason for the Gha outbreak was phosphates. What could be going on? |

have you changed your lighting at all? They can be sensitive to lighting changes. Maybe a change in the light timing?

might be a temporary reaction to the lighting change; mine looked dreadful for about a week or two when I changed my lighting | |

It could be the shock of the MH. Po3/4 doesnt effect LTA's.
