SRC Member clownfish_forever Posted January 25, 2014 SRC Member Share Posted January 25, 2014 Hi brothers, I have a few corals that are not doing well. Most of them have simply been in such condition for months but I simply couldn't bear to throw them. Because I always want to hope that they will recover although I doubt so. What do you do for such corals? Throw, keep or give away? Just want to hear some opinions...
