Anybody have any suggestions on what's happening it seems to be melting over night all other corals are perfectly fine had this coral for a year
Picture? Have you checked your salinity recently? My Duncans tend to be really sensitive to any minor changes in salinity. They’re super hardy but also good indicator corals.
