Help - RTN/STN??

[Haggisman14]

Hello all you fellow stickheads! I need some help.

In annoying news, my yellow tip acro is starting to get RTN or STN of sorts, and I have no idea why. No parameters have changed in the tank, and all my other SPS are fine. It started with a small piece at the base, and now it's affecting the base of the coral, not so much the actual protruding coralites...at least not yet.

This started back on Sunday, and has slowly began affecting more of the skeleton. Not sure why this is happening, as everything else is plump and happy... This guy was doing great and seemed to be growing, and was finally having some of the tips turning yellow again...

My light is a Kessil 160 Tuna Blue, that I keep just over 50% color, and about 65% intensity right now (ramping back up slowly after a recent coral order/acclimation from last week)

Should I break off the top piece and mount it somewhere else and see if it recovers. This is towards the top of my tank. I"ll attached a pic of it circled in a FTS

Looks like rtn. I would frag it. Probably stressed from the lighting change. I’ve noticed anytime I make the slightest change on my leds some of my frags will rtn or stn.

Thanks! Even more came off last night. Hopefully there's something left tonight....frag time!

So last night I was able to break off the top of the frag, and glue it into another section. I took my turkey baster and blasted off any lose skin on the mother frag if you will...and nothing else came off...so here's hoping it'll grow back.

Thanks for the help guys!

Old thread but did it come back after fragging?

Did you use Vibrant ?
