Hello everybody, was moving my Duncan and saw this on its side. Any ideas? Ammonia 0, nitrite 0, niTRATE 25, phos .5, calcium 400, mag unknown, alkalinity 9, pH 8. I haven't done anything differently in last 8 months

Close to any other corsl that could sting it?
Do you feed it?
 
nope. just aiptasia and vermetid snails that i crush if i see any webs near it.
 
feeding... I kinda got thrown into reefkeeping a little faster then i should of, back when i thought it was a sun coral id spot feed every day. last 2 months every other day or every 3 days.
 
I checked. I see 3 in the area but seem to be well out of reach. Tonight I'm going to see if anybody is munching on him. Those 3 polyp's look hard and dead/dying. Keeping fingers crossed it will stop there.
 
It's very possible aiptasia stung it. Does this appear to be brown jelly disease to anyone?
