Dipped armor of gods about 3-4 days ago in h202 tank water mix and they instantly ballooned. It looks like they filled with liquid in the outer skin and spitting out brown poop. This isn't the first time dipping but is a first time in 9 years I've seen that reaction...any ideas?

They got mad because of the dip. I've seen this many times. the brown stuff was likely expelled zooxanthellae. give it time and they should bounce back.
