BJD

[Pricey95]

Does this hammer have BJD..
I've had it for around 2 months and it's never fully extended.

All parameters are fine and in check. All other LPS are doing fine. Nothings changed.

I did noticed vermitted snails on it and I've cut them off and glued/Dipped after..

I'm thinking is it BJD?
The coral ABSOLUTELY STINKS ALSO

BJD kills a coral overnight, not over 2 months, so likely something else. I don't see much flesh though, looks like mostly bone.

Agreed that BJD normally works very quickly but since you mentioned the coral really stinks I would call it a loss and not put it back in the tank. At any rate it looks like it’s on its way out for sure and there’s no flesh to speak of.
