Frog dying Pod at a time...HELP

[guinness0514]

Guys I have a frog that is dying pod at a time. The head withdraws and then brown sludge and melts away. Most of the pods although stressed look ok , but one after one they keep dying. Water parameters are in check. What can be causing this? All other tank inhabitants are doing great....Only other LPS I have is a torch. A few weeks back they got close to touching so I moved the rock the torch was on further away. I thoughtthat might be the issue, but the pods that are dying are on the opposite side of the frog from the torch. What am I missing? Would the brown sludge be causing the other pods to melt? I don't have any tools yet to frag off the dying pods, so the sludge kinda get's on some of the other pods...If this is the issue, any other way to stop the domino effect until I can cut them off?

Thanks

looks like brown jelly disease,

Try doing an iodine dip. Def looks like a jelly disease. You really don't need special tools to frag that guy, just get a good grip on the infected branch and break off. Even a pair of sharp, clean scissors may be able to break it off. At this point, I would try to get the head off ASAP.

Good luck!
