Hi guys and girls,
Got a problem and hope you guys can help me with this.
I bought this coral from my friend about 5 months back and he kept this in his tank about 6 months before I get it. He got it from Thailand and think this is a wild collected piece.
When I got it doesn't had the bright green color and it was generally brown in color. My friend's tank doesn't have good quality water.
In my tank after about one month it starts growing nicely.
My water parameters are
DKH "“ between 9.2 to 9.8
Ca "“ 460
Mg "“ about 1600
PH "“ 8.0
Po4/NO3/No2/NH3-4 "“ 0
I dose randy's two part system, Carbon, KZ seawater complex, KZ AA concentrate and KZ coral vitalize.
And also twice a month I use Prodibio Bioptem, Biodigest, reef booster, Stronti+ and Iodi+
My tank water is ultra clean coz of hevey skimming and carbon dosing.
And feed my fish and coral with DD reef sticks, reef paste, LPS food and SPS food.
Coral was doing fine until 3 days back. This picture is about 2 weeks old.
and yesterday morning i noticed a tissue loss of the coral for the first time. I don't know how long it was going on but im sure it cant be more than 2 days old since I keep close watch on the tank.
pictures from yesterday.
and thees are the pictures from today and it lost more tissue from the front side.
So I'm guessing this is a some kind of bacterial infection. The thing is I don't have any kind of coral dips with me right now and latest I can get one is about within 6 days. And with the speed its speeding there will be nothing left of this when I get the dip.
So guys what can I do to save this? Giving a fresh water dip gona do any good? is there any house hold product i can use on this like Iodine solution or hydrogen peroxide?
