I have a two leptastrea dying. It started with one eye then the rest started following suit. Two of my zoa colonies had strange looking polyps that looked shriveled and now are closed. I’m not sure what’s going on everything has been very stable. I did add a few acros recently. Two of which died due to a mess up with shipping. Idk if this could have caused it. I took them both out of the tank as soon as I decided they were beyond saving. Everything else still looks great and my po4 stayed stable at .01.

Alk steady at 9
Calcium at 450
Temp controlled with apex 77-78

Could have a bug/parasite situation going on. Things to consider: dipping with Bayer and then Coral RX or Lugol's.

I do coralRx dips too and it helps them most of the time. I just got coral revive. Not sure if this would help better
