I dunno whats happening but one thing for sure, everytime i try a mille, its bound to RTN(most of the time)/ STN.... all other acro seem ok for example tenuis birdnest and echinata(i think) but not mille... weird.. is there something needed extra for them... BTW do they need stronger flow than other acro

water parameter:

1)ammonia-0

2)nitrite-0

3)nitrate-2.5

4)calcium- 500(weird can't see to bring down further)

5)dkh-9.6

6)ph-8.2

I used to have 2 piece of milli for some time one red and the other blue. Recently, I changed my cal reactor and some of the parameter varies daily during tuning - Both sps RTN - but the rest of my acro looks fine. The red milli didn't make it. The blue one has recovered so far.

Looks like they are more sensitive to water parameter. My KH was changing slightly like 2 KH during the tunning phase.

So I suspect your cal level might be the main culprit. If I am not wrong your sps should have RTN/STN during the time when you are adjusting your cal or KH level.

Hmm could be..... but my paramter has been like tat for quite sometime... anyway :thanks::thanks: I always thought that mille are one of the easier species to keep... yeah mine is also blue and pink.... so conclusion for now is temporary no mille.. maybe just stags and other acros

i have some mili in my tank, i also feels that its one of the easiest.. i use to keep it under 150W and it doesnt lose its colour, after which i pass it on to another reefer as he like it, den 2 week ago i took some frags back from him again and its still maintaining the colours in my tank right now ??? Therefore i presume its one of the easiest acro around.

Yah thats what i thought so too.... probably my tank got anti- mille curse :lol::lol::lol: hmm guess no more fiji mille.. maybe try out more stable one in reefers' home :eyebrow::eyebrow: or get those aquacultured indonesia kind...

Or maybe a frag from you :lol::lol::eyebrow::eyebrow:

You are dead right some tank can't keep montipora - mime is one of them ;) My other sps grows faster than the Monti cap. for the entire 3 to 4 month - not sure what is the reason..... maybe it got some thing to with water too clean ...- not sure whether it is true. Any Zeovit user got any problem keeping monti ?

DA,

My blue milli is also blue and pink like yours but when you placed under strong lights it will turn blue ... When I had it directly under 14k 250W - it was blue - no pink at all .but then other coral also need strong light so play around the configuration ... now the inner part turns pink whereas the branches facing out are blue.

Milis are tough sps... give them strong light + good water flow (esp when bigger) and they will be fine.

I do find Fiji sps a little harder to maintain in terms of colour and health... as most reefers here... indo milis are equally nice and hardier.

Perhaps its shipping stress... that is causing STN/RTN?

Is blue milli rare ? I thought they were quite common - not sure about now as I have stopped buying sps for a while .... I prefer frag exchange nowsaday .....and have lot of variety in my nano tank .... :D

Looking for birdnest frag or pink stag ..or some tricolor ... but if you have green ones - provided I dont have ... currently already have one turquoise, lime green and one dark green.. I think green is quite nice if have different combination.. :)

AT,

Can we tell by the color of the milli whether it is indo or Fiji ?

      contact@ digitaltechguard .com website link:: https://digitaltechguard.com telegram +56 997 059 700 Being an artist living in Miami, my life has always been filled with creativity, inspiration, and the ups and downs of a fluctuating income. However, nothing could prepare me for the financial blow I experienced when I fell victim to an online scam. Losing $25,000 felt like losing a part of my identity, as those funds represented not just my savings but also dreams and aspirations for my art. I found myself feeling lost, anxious, and uncertain about the future. In the midst of this turmoil, I began searching for solutions to recover my lost funds. That’s when I came across Digital Tech Guard Recovery. Initially, I was skeptical. Like many, I had read about recovery services that promised the world but often delivered nothing. However, my instincts told me to reach out to them, and I’m so glad I did. From the very first interaction, the team at Digital Tech Guard Recovery was professional and compassionate. They took the time to understand my situation, guiding me through the recovery process step by step. What impressed me most was their commitment to transparency; there were no upfront fees, which put my mind at ease during a time when I could least afford to take further financial risks. Digital Tech Guard Recovery walked me through the necessary documentation and evidence collection to support my case. They were patient, answering all my questions and providing me with updates throughout the process. Their expertise was evident, and it was comforting to know that I was in capable hands. It felt as if I had a team of advocates on my side, fighting to reclaim what was rightfully mine. Over the next few weeks, I watched as they diligently worked on my case. They kept me informed about their progress and what steps were being taken. I had almost lost hope, but their determination reignited my faith in the possibility of recovery. Finally, after what felt like an eternity, I received the news that my funds had been successfully recovered. I couldn't believe it—I was overjoyed. This experience not only restored my finances but also rekindled my belief in support systems. If you find yourself in a similar situation, I highly recommend reaching out to Digital Tech Guard Recovery.
