Duncan Coral

[TunaNoCrust]

Just got this today, what’s with the dark spot? Should I be concerned

 

[Gumbies R Us]

Photo under white lights?

Did the Duncan look like that when you got it?

How did you acclimate it?

Hard to tell under blue light, I hope it’s not bjd. Can you take it out and smell it? If it smells like death it’s not a good sign. I could be way off base because of the blue light.

What spot are we looking at?
Can you draw a circle around it ?

Or, are you referring to the tiny dot on that smaller polyp on the right mid portion?
If so, i'd to say it is taking a poo

It’s like a brownish spot and I’ve read it could be a dead spot but idk

Much better, yes you can rule that out, thanks god!

Its in a hard spot to take a good photo, no idea what it is, kinda just looks like a couple of dead, or dying heads.

I really hate the sniff test.... but its accurate, if not repulsive.

Can dying heads be trimmed off?

It's exposed skeleton, but you can see a new polyp growing from the center of one head.
You mentioned you "just got this today". Was it like that at the LFS? Reason I am asking, is the skeleton appears dark which means it has been that way for a while.

One of them is regrowing, you can see it in the picture.
You could also get a picture of the side that has the exposed skeleton, rather than a partial view
