Looks kinda toast too me....maybe just the pic.
After the above bath.
I’d check your phosphate level and lower it to trace, say 0.05-.1ppm
Agree, don’t see any flesh, only skeleton.Looks kinda toast too me....maybe just the pic.

I’d use a soft toothbrush and very lightly brush it off it will tick coral off but not harm it as long as ur gentle might take a few passes but will work I’ve done it to my zoas bunch of times, made them mad but didn’t hurt them. Anyway that’s what I do
Definitely looks like it’s almost dead or completely dead sorry.
Is there anything I can do to see if it’s still alive yesterday it had its little tentacles out feedingDefinitely looks like it’s almost dead or completely dead sorry.
If the entire thing feels like a rock it’s gone, are you sure those were coral feeding tentacles and not the arms of a pest?Is there anything I can do to see if it’s still alive yesterday it had its little tentacles out feeding
Hundred percent it was The coral and not a pest. I will have to check to see how it feels.If the entire thing feels like a rock it’s gone, are you sure those were coral feeding tentacles and not the arms of a pest?
If there’s still a speck of life leave it alone after brushing and see what happensIs there anything I can do to see if it’s still alive yesterday it had its little tentacles out feeding
And if you follow this advice, that coral will be dead in a matter of days.I’d just leave it alone no chemicals see how it does don’t try n play god n mess around with it Mother Nature will do what she does
Ok this is a pic of a piece of gorgonian it was on a rock with others one time, anyway I have no idea why it was in middle of sandbed all by itself. It looked dead almost three quarters of it had no flesh just hard skeleton like feeling poke,, but the top had a speck of life I stuck it in a rock figuring if it died all way least the ponies would have something to hang on. That was a month and a half maybe two months agoAnd if you follow this advice, that coral will be dead in a matter of days.
Look I get it, sometimes it's best to not do anything, but in this case with algae strangling the coral, it's better to react then do nothing and lose the coral. Least give it a fighting chance.
