brown jelly disease in my frogspawn, maybe?

Hi I fragged my frog spawn a two or three months ago. The frag has two heads the colour is green tentacle's with purple polyps. I have noticed over the last two weeks the coral is going a brownish colour, from the inside, there is no slime etc and does open every day but compare to the mother colony it doesn't look right, is this how brown jelly disease starts? I tried taking a photo but it doesn't really show the brown and visually it looks ok, any thoughts?

Thanks Ian
 
Offhand, i'd say it's not brown jelly.
The one time I experienced brown jelly, it happened so fast, it made my head spin.
One day I see a bit of browness on a coral, think to myself, that's odd, i wonder if I should cut that off?
Next day, 1/2 to 2/3 of a softball sized coral is dead, brown jelly crap everywhere.
Instantly frag to stop the carnage, but it was almost too late, ended up getting a few cuttings.
If yours is browning out over a period of weeks, I think it's something else.
But I could always be wrong.
 
Not brown jelly +1. Sounds like a color browning of the coral itself. Is it in lower light than it was previously?
