Got a number of gonis in my aquarium, and recently my green one has been producing a brown discharge. Figured it was just waste since I increased my phyto dosing, but now there’s a grey discharge and same brown also that is sticking to the skeleton. Ive had a small amount of tissue sloughing off, and the skeleton under the grey stuff is grey and dead by the looks. Minimal damage to polyps, however the skeleton is mostly affected.

Cheers in advance
 
Can see the coral is very receded but we need more info to help. How old is your tank? How long has the goni been in your tank? Can you zoom out a little and turn off the blue light and leave only the white light on? What are the parameters? What is the light and flow like where it is positioned?
 
Goni only receded when I moved it around to take a look, but I just moved it toward my purple one that’s doing really well toward the bottom of the tank, where there’s less flow and light. Performed a 20L water change on the tank. It’s a 150L tank filled to around 120-130L I’d estimate. Nitrates are stable but relatively high, as they have been for a while. Ph stable around 8.1, calcium up around 450. Phosphate relatively low. But I’ll check all these parameters tomorrow afternoon when I get home and update you.
