Need help ID what this is

Hi

Need help with what is on my coral and what to do about it and will it kill the coral?

It's melting/ dieing.

It looks like Brown Jelly Disease/Syndrome. An Iodine dip will sometimes help, but I think that head is too far gone for that.

Should I clean it off that head to save the rest

 

[Hyde7278]

Or take the whole colony out to save the rest of the tank.

Also is there anything I can do to protect the other coral?

 

[Hyde7278]

I'm going to take the offending colony out and drag out the good heads and try the iodine treatment and QT them and keep an eye on the other 2 colony's over the next few days.

Wish me luck

You might want to keep it whole and let it take it's course in the QT. They can grow back (I had 2 die, and one made a full recovery).

What's the best way to QT them if I only have one tank?
