Do you see any vermetid snails?
I had the same problem.

 

[kodama16]

Have you dip this guy for flatworms?

 

[thesoulpatch]

I did months ago when i got him. He's been in the same spot for at least 1 or 2 months.

and a no on the snails.

Dip it again

It’s dead if you don’t

And get a bunch of gel CA glue

If it has AEFWs. All of the other acros do too. Dip them all.

Then dip in a week. Good luck.

Yea dip again. One dip can easy miss flatworm eggs. He looks rough so I dip again. Rule him out but dipping him to find pest could save the rest.

 

[thesoulpatch]

Well let the fun begin.

 

[kodama16]

Is that bayer? I like coral RX so you can see if anything falls off. Never used bayer cause I can’t see through it. Let us know what you find.

 

[thesoulpatch]

IT's all I have on hand at the moment.

 

[thesoulpatch]

Well after dipping every single one nothing came off of them that I could see. I poured all liquid through the smallest sieve that I had which WAS used to catch bbs and I got nothing. Which is a good thing right?

But also leaves me at a loss....

 

[SeaDweller]

What’s your NO3 and PO4 at?

 

[kodama16]

Yea PO4 would be next good thing to check.

 

[thesoulpatch]

PO4 is <.1 and NO3 is 10.

 

[kodama16]

PO4 is <.1 and NO3 is 10.

;Brb Out of idea atm

 

[thesoulpatch]

Well, I used my coral feeder to blow off some stuff around the red planet and ALL of the tissue came flying off....so it's dead. RIP.

 

[thesoulpatch]

I guess it was RTN hidingbecause that WHOLE thing turned white instantly when I blew on it.

That looks like a coral in very, very rough shape.

Whats your lighting and flow look like? How old is the tank? Using RODI? Calibrated refractometer and verified SG? Temp?
