Hi Ya'll I'm kinda new to all this. My boss got me started and now I'm obsessed! I'm in need of some advise, I have a brain coral that I don't think is going to make it, at first his skeleton started showing and now it's 75% of him. He did look like he was coming back (with lots of TLC) Then I got 2 deco crabs and over night it looks like something took a bite of him so I put him on the frag tray away from the crabs and everyone else. I really don't know what else I can do to help this little guy out. I'm posting a pic of what he looked like when he was coming back and what he looks like now. If anyone can give me some advise I would really appreciate it. Thanks

Welcome! Sorry to see the coral not doing well. Looks like good advice above. Tank parameters will help us eliminate variables aside from the crabs. Best of luck:) With some flesh left there may be hope
