Good afternoon!

After lightly blowing my new torch with a pipette dropper I found out it had brown jelly disease. I am now petrified that I just shot that all over my tank and it will infect all of my euphyllia. Am I being over dramatic?

Anything I should be doing to prevent the others from getting it?

I saw the jelly free floating when I was hitting the torch.
 
Just observe, ensure ample flow. You can also dip your euphyllia in peroxide and iodine dips if you get too paranoid.

I definitely am going to keep an eye out. I can’t believe I did something so stupid. This is my first run in with it, so I didn’t know any better until I looked it up, but man how dumb I I feel now.

Are preemptive iodine or peroxide dips good or is it really overkill and I should wait for a sign? Regardless I will go ahead and order some lugols.
