White eggs or growths on torch coral

[wiggitywade]

The other day during routine tank maintenance I noticed this torch had a polyclad flatworm and lots of eggs. I dipped and manually removed all (hopefully) of the eggs. They were small and yellowish. I don't have a QT (shame on me) so that is why it is on the frag rack. I dipped the coral again after 4 days and did not see any worms or eggs. Today I was going to dip again for the flatworms and noticed these eggs? Growths? They look very different than the flatworm eggs and have appeared what seems like overnight as I have been keeping a close eye on this guy due to the recent issues. Any help or ideas would be awesome! Cheers!

I have nothing, this looks blistered as if whatever was on there is dead/dying and bacteria is cleaning up.

*update* I dipped again with coral revive and whatever the white stuff was brushed off very easily. Weird. Seems fine now?

probably bacteria, whatever dip you used, killed it and caused the ulcers.
