So I am hoping that I did something stupid... Hear me out: Two of my Euphyllia type corals are showing very clear symptoms of Brown Jelly Disease. But I'm hoping that I am mistaking these signs for something else.
Recently I bumped up the UV light on my tank. I am lighting my 500ltrs with 5 AI Hydra26HD units, of which I increased the UV lighting by 60%. And I added some Orphek OR3 light that are very heavy on the UV. It's so pretty! All seemed well. A few weeks after that I moved two Euphyllia type coral higher in the tank on top of some rocks.
These are now showing signs that look so much like Brown Jelly. But I am hoping that I've just been roasting them. Any way I can tell? What does burnt LPS look like? Does it get a thick brown coating on top? The rest of my corals that I hadn't moved are looking very well.
