Clove polyp concern

[Sweetreef21]

Just noticed this the other day on the tip of the polyp is turning white, idk if its just closed up or something is going wrong. What do you guys think? They have been happy and healthy otherwise.

Looks like an infection.
Ive seen people treat it like zoa pox with furan 2 and it goes away.

Dam, How does that work? Do you turkey baste it or something?

Remove & dip. Look up furan 2 for zoa pox instructions on google

Hmm, what if its attached to the rock?

Youll have to figure out how to remove it from the tank if you want yo treat it. Otherwise just let it run its course.
The cloves will likely all wither away if left alone.

@footgal you have any ideas ?

Honestly I would just take a razor blade and hack off the one affected polyp since they seem super encrusted onto that rock. Maybe go ahead and make a frag just as a backup

I think im just going to do that. Just going to snip off the affected parts and hope for the best i guess.

How do i go about fragging this? Just snip a polyp off at the base and glue it to a plug?

I hope all those little white spots aren’t the infection, if so its everywhere.
