So today I used a turkey baster to blast some detritus off rocks and about an hour later my Moseleya looks ticked as hell. It’s shrunken up, and has what looks like a white mass in/around its mouth.

I’m guessing it ate some detritus and now has regrets?

Anyone know what’s happening? Is there anything to do, or just wait it out?

/all other fish and corals (LPS, beginner SPS, Softies) seem unaffected

Maybe damaged or stung? Any LPS or corals within 3-6 inches of it?
