I have had these two corals (Torch and Elegance coral) in my 90 gallon for several weeks and never looked better, all of a sudden they stopped opening up, the white/brown slime is appearing and they are dying. My water parameters are constant. I see a lot of threads similar to this, everyone always asks about water conditions and my response is the same as the other troubled souls, everything is fine... Any new ideas on what is going on here?
Also, I see that some people recommend dips, what are the details of these dips? Perhaps I can still save the last branch of my torch coral.


Thanks
 
someone suggested that a leather coral in my tank could be the problem emitting a poison, does that seem reasonable???
 
Yes Elegance corals have a reputation for being notoriously difficult to keep, good luck with that one...
The leather corals will emit a certain amount of toxins but if your filtration is up to par should not be enough to kill these guys.
As for the torch, hard to tell, could be a lot of things too much flow, too much light, got any pics of them?
