been reefing 8+ now and have a bottle.
it doesn't seal it. your trying to force feed it poison(high ph calcium chloride to burn it actually). as a survival strategy it spits.

I would frag or toss the coral. no joke.

So I assume your referring to the polyps. I have never fragged anything, so I would not attempt it until I read something on how its done. Can you point me in a direction to learn how its done?

yes I was.
I hop I didn't get you to paranoid. Bryopsis will look like a feather or fern. they are pretty easily Id"d. Gha (several strains) respond well to the diluted peroxide treatment and scrub. .
For clove polyps you pretty much lift the "vines" off of the rock with a sharp stick scalpel etc. with yours I don't see developed vines yet, but I could be wrong.

So I lift them off from the bottom , pry between the rock and coral. I also just bought some Seachem reef glue as I have one polyp that is wandering so I want to glue it to a rock. That stuff ok?
