Hi,
The tissue on one of my Acro is falling off rapidly like a RTN after I played with the powerhead 3 days ago. What should I doto save it?
Thanks
Chris
 
If there's enough left, frag above (or below depending on direction of RTN) the dead areas to try to save your piece. Mount with superglue and hope that piece doesn't RTN.

Why do you think messing with your PH did that?
 
Just to confirm this is the only Acro in the tank showing signs of trouble?

Is the power head focused directly on this coral?
 
It's been fine since I "changed the water flow" few days ago. I was guessing if I turned the powerhead pointing too close to it. Everything else (other SPS and another Acro next to it) is fine and thriving. Nothing else was done apart from the fish feeding routine.
