100% thisThe dark spot may be a condition called brown jelly disease bjd. There appears to be some skeleton showing on the right polyp. And the dark area is likely tissue that is dieing. Hopefully additional reefers will chime in. @MERKEY can you take a look?
There are some experimental treatments using products like cipro that have shown promise. @Eagle_Steve any insight on this one?
It was okay for weeks though. Why suddenly it got BJD?100% this
The other head still looks good and seems to have flesh still.
A cipro bath should help and seems to be the "new" fight in the bacterial sector.
@Eagle_Steve Has some good info
It is believed the bjd is brought on by several causes but bacteria seem to be most often the final problem as the flesh begins to deteriorate. This process typically remains hidden until the polyp seems to suddenly melt and turn to goo.It was okay for weeks though. Why suddenly it got BJD?
What is cipro?
I dipped it coral medic by brightwell more than 3 days ago.

What can you get in Canada? There are a few different types of meds for freshwater fish that are antibiotic based, but not typically regulated. For example API general cure and API Furan 2. They are such a low dosage, they may be allowed.I do have ATO and Trident.
So is this BJD too??!? This is not on high flow area and close to the bottom. I have it for several months with no issue. Does this also have BJD??How about this torch? What’s going on with it??
