So I've got a small frag of rastas, and I got it with 3 heads. After a month, they were huge and started forming new heads. Now, the biggest, mother head that made 3 new ones, is shrivled up and looks deformed. I thought it was just that head, but now the polyp next to it is closing up as well..I would be ****** if I lost these guys. 4 healthy heads on it, the bad mother head, and now that head that is starting to close up. One thing I noticed was that the new heads that formed, they moved away from the mother head extremely fast, almost 1/2 an inch after they were big enough.

I wouldn't know what the trouble is, but personally I would dip and QT the affected polyps before it spreads any further.

I've used coral Rx and lugols as dips. Also check for nudibranches.
