my ricordia came to me a bit brown along the edge. i'm assuming this is a sign of poor health. is this something i should be concerned about (ie amputate the brown bit) or will it take care of itself?

thank you.

Is it brown all around the polyp or just in one spot? Is it sliming up in the brown area? There are many, many color morphs with ricordia so it could be healthy and just have some brown color on it. A pic would help.

it's along where it was cut. the ricordia itself is a light blue green, not brown. i'm pretty sure it's healing though.

this (http://www.aquariumadvice.com/photopost/data/508/145ricordia.JPG) is the only pic i have of it. nothing of the brown edge.

thanks for your input.

If you think its healing, thats good then. Just make sure to give it good lighting and decent flow and it should be fine.
