Brown jelly disease??

[AnotherReefHobbyist]

Hello internet peoples, my coral have been doing not so great recently, and I am worried it could be brown jelly disease. Specifically my LPS are very angry at night. Can anyone confirm/deny what I am seeing is brown jelly?

the flesh seems thinly stretched across the skeleton and it is brownish in some areas.

if so what should I do? I have several hundreds of dollars worth of lps and would rather not loose them all.

Was this taken at night or during the day?

This was taken about 2 hours after the lights went off. ( 9pm )

it is mostly open during the day, not as much as it was a few days ago though.

No that does not look like bjd. Once you can see BJD on a coral the progression and death is very rapid on that coral/head(though any visible sign on other corals/heads may take several days)

These corals do this at night. . .

At night they are sleeping. My hammer looks dead at night.

Glad to hear it isn’t anything bad! Thanks for the help.

hi,not liking the "flesh is thin" "brownish" in areas,
watch for recession on tissue, color loss on tissue.
