Hammer Coral Disease?

Hello,

Any idea what is going on here? It is a creamish, almost pink color.

The dreaded brown jelly disease. If you can, get a ziploc bag and surround the affected frag as to not disturb the jelly like mass and spread it throughout the tank with flow off. Once out you’ll have to treat the affected piece with a dip. A quick search of BJD will give you direction on what to do with what you got on hand or are able to get. This stuff kills extremely fast so time is off the essence.

I’ve had BJD. This is not it. This is light in color and not stringy like BJD

Perhaps a better pic under white lights is in order.

A sponge taking over?

I’m not sure but I went to move it to a QT tank and 2 heads just slid clean off

This coral is releasing its mesenterial filaments or, its guts. when you see this and they end up dying, its usually due to extreme stress. have you had a big swing? list of parameters and test kits used to determine them would be very helpful too
