I can only surmise that since disconnecting the HIATT and doing some major water changes that something this palythoa needs has returned to the water.
I glued the plug it's on about halfway up in my tank, and it's getting 8 hours of 20K (closer to 14K Phoenix) light, from the halide, supplimented by some 10K T-5s - it seems to be putting on mass.
I am making a concerted effort to get some cyclopzeeze in it's mouth every other day now, not sure if i am succeeding. as slow a grower as MOHAWK appears to be, I expect it will be months in recovering, and perhaps 6 months before it starts producing new mohawks.
crossing fingers!
