Trying to save open brain

[jlancas81]

Got some corals from a buddy having issues...just wondering if there is any hope for this one, and if so, proper plan of action.

Yes Ive gotten worse. Only solution is good light , good flow, good water and time.
Its impossible to determine what happened really, just hope its not too late for it..

His tank never was right, and I also found 2 aiptasia on bottom of coral. I super glued them, so they should not be an issue moving forward.

Low light, low flow and feed that poor creature everyday. I saves quite a number of open brains from LFS before.

Spot feeding reed chili work?

I like to feed fish food

Open brain loves meaty foods. The problem with powdery food is they tends to washed away easily. Turn off powerheads/wavemakers and spot feed. Might take ages for it to swallow completely, so make sure nothing steal the food.

Thanks guys. I have them in a fishless qt, so the meaty food should not be an issue.
