Colt having troubles

[seahorselover]

Hi I dont post here often but I need some help. Ive got a colt coral that I believe was being stung by my frogspawn. I've moved it "downstream" and away from the FS but it just still isnt doing well. Its shrunk down substantially, it still opens up but it just doesnt look good. Is there anything else I can do for it?

thanks for your help

if you have a refugium you can try to put it in there for a few weeks or you can set up a quarantine tankk and place it in there for a month or 2. but if it is still attached to the rock its still alive if it starts to reced then you worry. right now i would be a little concerned but not to much. you can also try to put some amquil plus or you can add some coral vit that seems to make my corals come back to life

Thanks a bunch I'll give that a try, its still attached and alive but it's definitely not happy.
