So I’ve had this branching hammer for about two months now and suddenly it’s started to deflate no idea why. I bought it as a single head and now noticed it’s either split or instill splitting. But it’s a gold and blue hammer but you couldn’t tell from the pics. It was doing well at first but idk. I’ve been battling with BJD so that’s one possibility. It’s been like this for about 2-3 weeks. My parameters are fine and stable. And my other corals seem to be doing great just don’t know about this one

You could do an iodine dip. Whenever my euphyllia aren’t happy I’m always terrified of bacterial infections and BJD so I’m quick to dip. Seems to help a lot of the time.

What deep do you use if you don’t mind me asking?
 
Definitely iodine dip and put in low flow, I experienced the same thing with my frogspawn when my torch had BJD. Worked out well for me, goodluck!

What’s a good dip brand with iodine? All I have is revive
