frogspawn......under attack

[newby30gallon]

has anyone had an issue with a six line attacking your frogspawn? have not seen it happen but noticed at the base some tissue is missing. any thoughts are great.

It was either picking at some decaying tissue, picking something off the tissue, or it's developed a taste for fleshy tentacles. I'd bet #1 or #2 are most likely the culprit and the wrasse was merely there and where-by guilty by association

thx

is there any diseases to worry about here?

Odd. I've never heard of a six line eating coral..lunless it was eating the decaying tissue.

I have a concern that it is STN-slow tissue necrosis. how do i confirm this #1 and secondly, after a coralrx dip can i add right back to the tank or is a QT necessary?

don't need to QT coral after dip. Dip it, when ready, rinse it in a cup of tank water, and you can put it back in the tank.

Have you checked your alk level? It might cause the base start recessing too.

i tested everything last night. 11 alk, 8.2 ph, mag 1250 (dosed after testing), Cal 385 (dosed after testing), sp 1.025, 0 nit, 0 phs, 0 am. So i have to assume at this point STN. Thoughts?
