Hi all
My Fungia was fine and in good health 2 days ago , yesterday I woke to fine flesh missing
It's sitting close to a brain is some sort
Iv seen the brain send out short stingers before but never towards the fungia

Read sea 350
Mag 1380
Cal 450
Alk 8.0dkh
Temp 78
pH 8.2
Po4 0.3
No3 10

It's a got worse since yesterday

I'd move it away from the brain, I'm not sure if that's the cause but have seen mine recover from significant damage inflicted by peppermint shrimp. Even if it dies don't remove the skeleton, the fungia can sprout off spring on what looks like a gone skeleton.

Iv 2 peppermint shrimp wonder if they have been having a go
Also my regal tang has been slowly killing a tracky by nipping at it all the time ,wonder if hes been picking at this fungi aswell
Just took a pic at lights out and its not looking like it's gonna make it , I'm gonna keep the skeleton as your right in what you said about off spring on a dead skeleton , iv seen a few pic of it
Thanks for your help everyone

PS in my first post my phone made me look like I can't string to sentences together
