Bubble coral
Is the water flow to direct? Has the coral fallen off of the rock or is it being stung by something? They are subject to brown jelly infection.

I have seen this happen once unexpectedly after about 6 months of looking normal. I wonder if it is some trace element that is missing. Do you feed the bubble at all?

Mine is now half open now.
It was supposed to be white, but it is now brown.. I might have too much flow, and I am running 10k 250watt MH |
