I have a small two headed Duncan coral in my NUVO Fusion 40 that I fear has Brown Jelly Disease (see photo). For the last two weeks, I’ve noticed it just wasn’t opening fully and I wasn’t sure why. Yesterday I found two or three hermits “cleaning” the skeleton. Today, I found both heads nearly covered in brownnish red slime. Is this BJD? What should I do. As much as I don’t want to lose it, I’m much more concerned about the other corals in my tank.
Parameters have been stable. Recent test results below:
Temp 78.4
Alk 8.1
Calc 420
Nitrate ~15ppm
Phosphate 0.30ppm
I realize my Nitrates and Phosphates are high. I’ve been working on getting them down in the last week or so.
