My goniopora polyps are completely gone. What should I do? Thanks

First you need to provide some info.

How old is the tank.
What are the parameters (salinity, alkalinity, nitrate, phosphate, and temperature).
How long has the coral been in the tank?

 

[Flavio Reis]

8 months ...kh 8.5....temperature 26 degrees...phosphate 0...nitrate 0.

You didn't say how long the coral has been in the tank.

LPS Corals need Nitrate > 5ppm and Phosphate > 0.05ppm
The coral is probably starving.

The coral is 1 month in the tank. I feed my corals Reef roids and use fuel. My torch is healthy and growing.

I wouldn’t sweat it to much if that’s even a Gorgonian. They do that sometimes.

That has got to be the smallest Gorgonian frag I’ve ever seen. Most are like sticks 3-6” sticking up.
