Morning All.

I woke up this morning to find my torch coral like this.

Has it been attacked by something or is it just on its way out?

Sods law its the most expensive coral in the tank aswell.

Tank parameters that I check are.

dkh:- 11
Phosphate:-0.01
Salinity:- 1.024
amonia:- 0

I have had the coral for only a week or 2

What’s the rest of your water parameters at too?
That torch looks bad. Polyp bailout not a good sign. They melt sometimes from brown jelly disease but that looks completely different. Did you have it really in high flow or super high light?
