I have dipped each coral one in coral rx and a brightwell aqutics dip with and nethier did anything it got worse and completly consumed the coral it looks brown and it moves very easy looks slimy

A picture would be needed ..

are you sure the "Brown stuff" Is not being expelled from a Stressed or dieing coral...

It sounds like brown jelly disease.

+1. With out a pic it's hard to tell, but I agree, probably brown jelly.

thanks guys i will get back with a pic later been busy wiring up the apex and new tank looked over and saw another torch getting consumed by this in my old nano cube. it could be stress but i do not think it because when i dipped it these brown things came off in the dip it looked like they had little tinticals on there heads? kinda like a nudia branch does make any sense ?

I had a similar situation this weekend. I picked up a small frogspawn piece and yesterday afternoon noticed the top of the polyps covered in a dark brown slime. If it was junk, it isn't there anymore. If it was brown jelly, I sucked out the little bit of jelly that fell off during removal before it went anywhere and dipped my piece in a 50-50 mix of 3% H2O2 and saltwater for a minute. The junk came off so we will see tonight how it is doing...

Torch coral will turn to a brown jelly as it dies
