Need help please

In the last 2 days both of my Kenya Trees have started dying off very quickly. The "branches" are turning a slimy brown and withering and the remaining portions aren't opening. I moved both of them to quarantine and fragged off the healthy looking portions and have them rubberbanded to a couple of pieces of rubble in the quarantine tank.

Any ideas on what this is or how to treat it? Should I be worried about my other corals?

Whats your water parimeters? Thats what will be needed to eliminate possible problems. I dont have any Kenya but my Xania started to wither awhile back because I got my salinity messed up during a water change. Never do a water change while stressed out.. I forgot to add salt.. Anyways as soon as I corrected the problem it all recovered nicely.

I use my Kenya trees as a PH gauge. If they stay closed for more than one day, my PH is usually low.

Yep it was, very low in fact 7.59 ouch! I ended up losing the kenya and xenia but rescued everything else by moving it into quarantine while I got the water parameters back in check.

I have an abundance of Kenya, but I am down around Jasper, If you can't get someone locally to give you some let me know and I will see about mailing you some.

I have a number of them (both kenya and xenia) if you want some.

Hi Stepfish,

They are free for a good home. If you have some time today or tomorrow, just PM me when you want to come over. Otherwise we can get together next weekend or something.
