Hammer coral has a clear with orange spotted growth that looks almost like a fungus and what appears to be circular orange sacs of some sort that are getting larger and spreading out. Is in a semi spiral pattern on Skeleton that's expanding. It seemingly is causing flesh recession. I'm verifying...
Does anyone know what this could be, the hammer head has been dead for a while I recently noticed this growing around the edge of the head now starting to grow inside the polyp almost looks like an alveopora or is the hammer regrowing?
What happened to my gold hammer? I used about 1.5 ml of aiptasia X in a 13.5 gallon system and it totally spiked the alkalinity. I did two 50% water changes over two days, and it's starting to come out of it's skeleton, but almost all of the polyps have lost their gold and brown in favour of...
I've had it for a few weeks and its been looking pretty good and happy since. I got a lawn mower Blenny the 2 days and every day since it opens like normal and is out and puffy but around mid to late day it shrinks up. Could this be the blenny's doing although I haven't seen him go near it...
Help. My hammer has been struggling and now I have something growing on the skeleton. One of my heads already detached and is still alive in the tank trying to find a new spot.

Just got my hammer coral yesterday, and it's turning transparent (would show photo but you can't see it in a photo). I heard that it could mean its getting too much light so I turned the light down to 0% white & 40% blue (was 15% white & 85% blue). Is it getting too much light or too little, or...

Hi, hope all are having a nice day! Bought this Hammer coral about a month ago, and started to notice it getting drastically smaller, closer to death. Was curious if you have any advice on trying to save. placed him in the middle of the tank, and will share pics! Appreciate any help!
I have a whole rock with new hammer corals, and i have gaps i want filled, or at least the neighboring rocks to be filled but i keep reading hammers will sting and kill other corals. But i also saw one guy with zoas surrounding a giant hammer and it looked fine in his tank. What about zoas or...
