Help with Blasto frag
Hey,
I've had this Blasto frag in my tank for 2-3 months. It's been doing fine for up until about a week/ week and half ago. The skeleton is exposed on the upper right head, it almost looks like it's pulling away from the skeleton. Tank Info: 20g Long w/ 2.5 DIY fuge w/ cheato 70W MH w/ 14,000K bulb Flow is roughly 20x turnover SG- 1.026 Temp- 79-81 NH4 & NO2- 0 NO3 > 5ppm Ca- 400-420ppm Alk- 9.8-10.1 Water is RO/DI- TDS of 5 (hopefully Santa's bringing me some new membranes) Weekly 4g water changes Feed Mysis shrimp weekly (I feed the colony, and try to make sure that each head gets some, Mysis is freeze-dried, which I'm not sure is the best food, let me know if you have a suggestion on something better.) Not sure what else you might need info-wise, let me know. Thanks for any help. Here's a picture (not the best)...

Is it just the 1 polyp retracting? I have had this happen and lose 1 entire polyp and have 3 smaller ones grow in its place.

I had this happen to mine a little while ago. Does it seem worse in the morning when the lights come on? Mine got stressed from my reaquascaping and then at night copepods were attacking it. I didn't think I would save it. I'm sure this wasn't ideal, but I left the lights on for a few days and it recovered enough to keep the copepods away, now its doing great.

Do you feed your Blasto? Feeding LPS can help prevent and stop tissue recession.
