Chalice woes

[bromion]

Any ideas on what's going on with this chalice? Select parts are white, rest looks healthy. The white part is growing unfortunately.

get it out of the light that it is near now. put it lower in the tank to see if the lighting is the source of the problem. Even if the coral is bleaching it will still continue to grow i have had this happen before and it went away over time the coral basically grew back over the white spots.

Are your parameters ok?

Chalices are weird and can catch infections sometimes that will slowly eat them, a Revive dip wouldn't hurt just to make sure. I've had similar chalice issues and one Revive dip t.t, wish I'd known before having lost so many chalice colonies

What does the revive dip do?

 

[ReefingRy]

NM. I use coral RX. I guess it is the same thing.

Dipping it in lugols might be easier on it

Lugol's is toxic and Revive isn't, so definitely wouldn't be easier on it.

if problem continue, maybe try fragging it to save yourself a piece.

I've had problems with chalice growth when my Mag gets too low. Make sure your mag is up there
