Hey! I'm pretty new to reefing and could use some help diagnosing what's going on with my frogspawn. So I noticed about a week ago that my frogspawn's mouth was pretty wide. At this time all the other coral in my tank, including another frogspawn all looked happy, so I tried not to worry about it. I left the tank alone for 2 days and in that time a fish died (new and already sick addition from Petco, I know bad choice). Today I got back and while the frogspawn looked nice and fluffy the mouth was even larger, and I noticed when it began to retract for the night that I could see some skeleton on a head. I don't know if I'm being paranoid, but is there anything wrong/ anything I should do? Id appreciate any help :/
*My parameters were all perfect pre-dead fish but I'm going to have to get them retested.

Rock looks pretty bare. How long have you had it? What are your nutrient levels? Nitrate and phosphate. Do you target feed them at all? I find mine do better with a little target feeding a couple times a week.
