I've got something strange going on in my frag tank. RTN, and a "bubble" type of coating on most, if not all, sps corals, zoas not opening all the way up. Everything was fine up until about a week or so ago, when a Pearlberry frag rtn'd. The other 3 followed, and since then, the frags have all gone down hill.
I tested all water parameters, all were good. Also had that tested at my favorite LFS and all checked the same. No stray voltage. Nothing foreign introduced into the tank/water that I know of (I live alone in my house, no pets). I have done a complete WC, dip, and re-acclimated all frags back into the frag tank. I am now running carbon in a mesh bag also. I've lost 13 sps frags, as well as got rid of all the Birdsnest frags now since they all showed the same signs of infection?.
The first image is the Bird of Paradise Birdsnest. I fragged this a couple weeks ago from my main system, and the mother colony is fine. I also fragged a Ponape, and it is fine.
The 2nd and 3rd images show strange polyp extension on another coral (again, the mother colony is fine in the main tank).
Any insight would be much appreciated.
