Hey Folks,

I got some frags in my recently cycled tank and while they are thriving well, some have issues. Can I get help recognizing what they are?

1. Xenia stopped pulsing and there is this weird brown color stuff that I am not sure what is
2. The Clove Polyps have that elongated mass that I am not sure what is
3. The Zoas have this weird white spot on their center that I am not sure what is
4. The Kenya tress has a hole!? Not sure how that came be.
5. I spotted one Aptasia in my tank, what would be the best way to take it out? I wanna use nudibranch but I was told it first needs to reproduce and then they hunt in packs. Not sure how true that is.

Any knowledgeable opinion would be appreciated

Not gonna lie they all look unhealthy! Have you tried dipping them? Give them low light for about 2 weeks see what happens! Make sure you dip them tho! I hope it gets better! Im new to the hobby 6 months with my first tank. I had a fair share of corals n fish dying! Patience is key!
