Soft Coral Tissue loss

[Gavin0624]

Hello Everyone,

I am very new to the hobby, please forgive me for not knowing the names of the beautiful corals. The Green Coral was next to the tan coral. The green coral, I believe he/she released his stingers and stung the tan coral. Now he seems to have an infection of some sort, that is growing more & more. I did separate the two. Can someone help.


Thank you

Looks like brown jelly disease. Usually fatal, esp with gonipora coral which that is.

Hey Thanks for the info. I really appreciate. No way I can save it? Or cut it? Either way thank you.

It tends to spread quickly esp on gonis. I’ve had some success with peroxide but it’s no guarantee. I’d keep an eye and if you see it starting to spread you might want to give it a shot.
