I’ve had a slowburn of bad luck in my tank over the last 3 months, losing hammers, torches bailing out and so on. Things stabilized for a month, and in the last 2 weeks one of my acans, and both my favias have began going downhill, while watching the tank this evening i noticed weird growth from one of my favias that started to quickly recede on saturday.

What on earth am I dealing with here?? I’ve had this favia for a year now and it’s been doing great other than slow growth until now. Im also noticing little bits of this in my other favia that ive had for almost 3 years.
