Is my Frogspawn still alive?

[Reef Mamma]

Hi all, needed some advice. We had a mayor ick attack in our reef. As many new reefers we tried all the “stuff” claimed to work. Nothing did other that QT. My frogspawn is not looking good at all. Yesterday did a 50% WC and also a fresh water dip on FS. I see some bulbs but totally retracted. Possible she is still alive ???

Did you add copper to the water to deal with ich? Do you have any other corals in the tank? It's still alive, but possibly not for long.

If it's still got some flesh then it's still alive and savable but it is definitely on its way out

Also, what's your salinity at? I'm assuming your other parameters are good- 0 ammonia, 0 nitrite, temp 70s to low 80s

We did not add copper to our DT- we set up a QT and medicating our fish there. We did try kick ick and rally in the beginning to try and avoid Reef tear down - is there anything I can do to help my FS?
All parameters in tank are normal including calcium

Salinity last checked was at 1.025 all other parameters are normal as well

Do you have other corals in the tank? Are they doing well?

Is this including alkalinity and calcium?

Just let it sit in gentle flow and moderate lighting and let it be. The more it is touched the wors eit will be. You can try feeding something like vitachem, reef energy, fuel, or an amino acid mix but other than that I would just let it try and recover.

What light do you have and what intensity?

I mostly agree with this but it'd be nice to figure out the root cause too. A fresh list of parameter test results would be helpful

Have you moved it recently? Is it doing any better now?

Still alive but very retracted/dying. If there are polyps, its alive though.
