I was wondering if anyone could help me out with what could be going on with my Indo. I recently had a torch start to die in my tank that was kinda close to my Indo. I removed the torch from the tank when I noticed it had some brown jelly on it. Ever since then the indo has been really shrunken\shriveled up. I’m wondering if this could be related to the torch decline and possibly releasing toxins in the water? It’s still been shrunken down for about a week now. Everything else in my tank is doing great. I posted my parameters below, with some screenshots of how the indo used to look to now. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

I don't think its related to the torch. Have you tried moving it to a different position? Sometimes a different perspective on light and flow can help.

I think your root question may be "What happened to cause the torch to do that?"

Focus on basics instead of fiction like "brown jelly".

How old is the tank?

How stable are those test numbers you posted?

How long have you had the corals in question?

Were you able to match their previous flow/light/nutrient regime when adding them to your tank?

Anything interesting happen with the tank leading up to the Torch situation?
