Is this STN/RTN?

[mrcoffee2]

I picked up this acro at a frag swap. I noticed a spot on one of its polyps is white. Can you please help me figure out if this is some kind of acro disease and what would be the best step to take in this case.

Looks like maybe it got damaged in the container or stung by touching another coral maybe? How long have you had it?

very hard to say, it looks like something stung it. Try blowing on it with a turkey baster. I don't think its stn or rtn, normally that starts at the base of the coral

Ok I have had it less than 24hrs. It was most likely banged around a bit on the way home. I can't blow what ever it is off but it does seem to be a damaged polyp

I would be more concerned about the base. Is there that much glue down there.

 

[mrcoffee2]

Yeah thats all glue where the tissue stops

 

[nova65ss]

I don't see anything wrong with the base or the amount of glue?

 

[rayn]

You see it up close, so you know. Any frag I have had rtn has started at the base. Just looks to me like a big white area under the frag, wanted to make sure it was glue.

Looks fine. It's actually encrusting over the glue.

Did you dip the frag before putting it in your tank? As long as it's not spreading it should be fine.
