Is this brown jelly?

[Nierika]

I noticed one of the heads on my hammer was all shriveled up and not sure if it's brown jelly.

Doesn't look good, that is for sure. It very well could be, although from the pictures I can't clearly see if there is any of the "brown jelly" like substance that the disease is named form. Even if it isn't brown jelly disease, it doesn't mean it cant be infected by something else. #reefsquad

I was able to use a turkey baster to suck off some of the slime. Here is a macro shot of what I pulled out.

That looks like brown jelly. Remove coral, cut off infected heads, and quarantine it for a bit and observe it. Also do a water change, I would say at least 50% in order to be safe and minimize the chance of having contaminated water in the system. Afterwards watch your display tank as well for signs of any other corals being infected.

Once again, let's get some #reefsquad members in here for their assistance as well.

+1 if you can remove the coral and cut the infected head I would. I'd also do a iodine dip after cutting off the infected section.

Yes brown jelly. Above advise to remove and dip in lugol's solution.

Definitely brown jelly.
It is very easily treated with lugol. At one time, one of the LFS gave me fragments of euphylia and elegans corals for treatment.
But this is if the colony can be pulled out of the display tank.
I think it’s better to cut off the infected head, treat and stick as frag.
At the same time, think about what led to the disease of this particular head?

I as well would look into the cause after treatment. It is possible that the nearby torch like coral got aggressive.
