Any advise on saving my battle corals grow out piece.

[exnisstech]

This Bonsai Humilis arrived last Tuesday along with 2 other frags. Did a bit of acclimation, temp and 1/4 cup of water every 10 minutes for an hour. Placed in the tank and withing 24 it was nice fat and healthy looking. Then last night I saw white on one tip then today this. The other two frags from the shipment along with other 25 or so frags in the tank are fine.
I know this stuff happens from time to time with no explanation but dang its always one that has some special meaning it seems like
Is there anything I can do other than watching it? I have another tank with similar parameters but a little less light that is growing acro pretty well I thought about moving it to but I dunno if that would help.
Anyone have any suggestions? @Battlecorals?

Fragging it might help - cut off the white part. Did you dose alkalinity by chance?

What par is it in?

Hi there,

sorry to see that little bit of good news little bit of bad news. good news is that is not the bonsai.

bad news is, I think you may have had a Ligonberry in your order and I believe that's what that is Any chance you could take a shot of the rest of the Frags and will be able to Id that bonsai for you?

Will certainly replace that Ligonberry next time as well

 

[Battlecorals]

OK never mind . I found a pic you actually sent me so here's what you got my friend

lingonberry on the left, Pink Floyd in the middle and bonsai on the right. 100% sure

I'm sending you the troll on Wednesday I believe, that I forgot and I will replace the Ligonberry along with that guy for sure .

no problem my man.

This should be the Pink Floyd

I started 2 part on a doser just before the frags arrived. I was dosing manually so having the dose spread out should be even better. Testing daily alk has been 8.4

What par is it in?

Par is only 280 during peak. I placed it low in th tank.

It probably got an infection from shipping stress and or new tank environment. Maybe a Kung fu dip?

Is that the same as a KFC dip? Had to Google as I have no idea.
