my long tentacle plate was thriving last week. then i moved him over gently to make room for some new colonies and he's hated me ever since. keeps spitting brown balls almost like pearls out :( he opens kind of during the day but nothing even close to how he used to look :( my other plate doesn't look like this
 
Ugh...could be. I'd try turkey basting that off to begin with.
 
Spitting brown balls sounds more like the coral is pooping. They excrete waste from the same openings they take food in. Brown jelly tends to look exactly how it's named. Also, if you smell the coral (sounds weird I know), BJD is a smell you will NEVER forget.
 
ive had brown jelly, dont blast it off. suck it out with baster.
when its jelly the coral closes up and once you suck it out it should start to come back you will see some damage area where you sucked it out of.
