Any idea what may be going on with my coral? It started with white on it the other day. I adjusted the flow to see if it did better But no change yet.

Its hard to see... is the white growing on the coral?

Or are flakes of coral dropping off and exposing the white?

A lot of gorgs have a mucus coat they they shed every few days. This helps keep them clean and is just something they do.

It looks like yours is shedding its waxy coat. Strong flow will help it shed easier and more quickly.
