Mysterious euphyllia disease

ca1ore, were you able to keep euphillia corals after that? What I fear the most is what ever is killing these corals will remain in the tank and continue killing any euphillia I add. If my all euphillia corals die I will probably not buy new ones for couple of months to be sure, but I hope I can add them afterwards.

In my case ricordia were affected as well as the euphillia corals - though nothing else. Was quite odd. I went without both for a while; about a year if memory serves. I have subsequently been able to keep euphillia again, though have not tried ricordia.
 
Not for fish.

Check ebay, many can be purchased that are human medicine labeled as fish antibiotics. They cracked down last year because it was so easy, but many can still be found legally.

I bought fish flox, for example, without a prescription and it's Cipro (gram negative I believe). Also the fish version of septra. I use them mainly to treat anemones, but they're very effective against fin rot as well.

Last year I was getting doxycycline super cheap, and it was everywhere. This year you have to hunt harder and prices went up due to the supply being so limited now.

When in doubt search bird antibiotics ;)
