Acro crab

[Danh Ngo]

I got the mille for almost 2 week, other acro have polyps extended, except this. I found a small dead spot one of the small branch, lucky not the base of the colony. I check all water par, all good but have no idea. Now I found thi little monster. Could it be the problem that make my mille unhappy? Should I frag the branch with the dead spot, or leave it in there? Quite hairy :)

Very hard to tell from picture, but I would sump it if questionable. Keep eye on milli. May need to dip to help recover (revive or lugols works well).

What type of dip to recover? What is the name of the product? Never heard of that. Thank you

 

[DeniseAndy]

Revive is the name of the dip itself. Lugols is an iodine solution of the same name. I think you should be able to find both easily.

I have Coral Rx is that the same?

 

[DeniseAndy]

Same as Revive basically. It will work fine. :)

I did that so just wait and see. I saw the crab was picking on the coral, and right at that dead spot. Will keep updating

Looks kinda like a gall crab.
