Elegance coral issue

[Samanthabea]

What is this trying to do just got it started turning brown in some tentacles then transfered tanks to prevent disease in other corals and now this

It looks like receding tissue/mouth. Is that an accurate observation?

Perhaps Elegance Coral Syndrome?

 

[Samanthabea]

Thought that it might be that or brown jelly disease because of some tentacles turning brown this was after transferring tanks to stop desicaration of the other tank in a last ditch effort of this corral making it looked bloated and this is what it looks like now

That's a unhappy elegance coral - either injured or diseased. I would be prepared to remove it if it gets any worse.

Looks like an infection which will likely turn into BJD. I’d isolate.

That's what we thought we put it in a different tank when it started to look like this to keep it from spreading to the other hammers one witch was just fragged this was the last effort to save it bassicly what I'm hearing is confermation that it's not going to make it

I'm assuming sence most of the skeleton is now white in the bowl of it its safe to say this coral has passed resurrection the outside of it has orange and greenish yellow

Chuck it. It’s a goner. Nothing to save.

 

[Samanthabea]

Was really hoping to save it but at the same time knew it was a really long shot at least we removed it before it infected the hammers had 3 large ones(1 branching 2 wall) and had just fragged one of them

 

[Samanthabea]

Curious though what does the coloration on the outside of the skeleton mean

 

[JGT]

Could be coralline algae or sponge. Hard to see from pic.
