Pink Coral ID/Problem

[jasonmartin1313]

Sorry not sure of the correct name for my "Pink Coral" regardless it has not been doing well in some areas. It seems to be always open but after a brief high sg delema a few weeks ago and and an extended lighting episode as well it has become stressed and developed a few brown spots as shown in the pic. I have done 2 water changes and maintained my parameters. Lighting has also been good for the past three weeks or so. I keep everything around 1.026, 460 Ca, 10 KH, 8.10 ph, and mag 1300. any help?

That is a Gonipora. and a ver nice one I must add. If you can take care of it and maintain it, that is a very nice piece. SInce you said it had a high SG dilemma, I will warn you that Goniporas are very very difficult to keep. People can keep them for a while then sometimes will die. Have been known to be difficult to keep in captivity.

Good Luck

It is still opening the same every day, the brown spots are about the same size, any opinions on a lugols dip?
