Duncan trouble

[ThomasC]

Skin appears to be coming off or being eaten? Does anyone have experience with this? It has gotten worse over a week or so.

While I doubt it has anything to do with it, params as follows: Alk 8.5 Ca 400 Mg 1300 temp 80.

Look for polyclad flatworms...hard to see.

Do you have an emerald crab? I never considered it, until I caught mine Green Clawed peeling the skin off my Duncan’s one night.
You may want to frag this above the tissue loss line to try and save it if you can find the culprit. My crab went to the Sump and the Duncan recovered.

I'll try and look for flat worms at night. No, no crabs. Just one shrimp, some hermits, and various snails

any update? I have a colony that had got in the way of a rock-flower for a couple days and is exhibiting the same tissue recession.

Unfortunately not a good update. I moved him down to the sand bed and tried a couple different spots with shelter but it just seems to keep spreading. Everything else in the tank is doing well, and numbers are coming back the same as always. My temp is a little high but other than that all is the same. Not sure it's going to pull through.
