Toadstool DYING????

Please help. I need a diagnosis here

Tank history and params would help a lot. They are pretty hardy, but if something is very wrong it can cause a problem.
Could just be due to a shed though (part of it never finished).

Any new fish or inverts added?

BTAs could be stinging it

This morning it’s even worse

My weeping willow did the same and looked like this for 3 months. Was going to toss it but a mate said as long as it's not disintegrating it will probably come right again. Apparently can sulk sometimes for no reason.

This is it now. I wouldn't worry

Thank you for the reassurance:)

There is some brown jelly like substance on it. Should I remove it with a turkey baster or let it be?

How long have you had it? Can you take it out of the tank and do a dip if needed? I'm not really sure if softies can get brown jelly disease, I think that's an LPS thing. Hopefully someone that knows a bit more about that can chime in.

Had it about 2 months. I could try and take it out but i don’t want to rip the tissue

You could try, or gently rub it off

I’d probably leave it for now. Sounds like algae is settling on the coral. Try blowing it off with a turkey baster.
