Hello all, it's been about 3 weeks that my Milky Ways have looked shriveled and pinched. All other corals in my tank are doing great. I've tried to look for an ID guide for coral sicknesses (like they have for fish) but haven't been able to find one. I also haven't noticed anything peculiar (slime, critters crawling, etc) on the zoas but, like I said, I'm not exactly sure what to look for or test for water param wise. Any suggestions? I gave them an iodine dip the other day but it didn't seem to help at all.

Did you do a dip using something like Coral Up in addition to iodine? Every time I’ve had something like that happened the polyps had some tiny flatworms pestering them. I have terrible eyes and couldn’t see them until I dipped. Good luck!
 
I'll head out and get some coral up as iodine is the only thing I have. Anything else I should do beyond the dip?
