wat happen to my coral

[tagie_tag]

wat happen to his luminious skin got peel off? got few patches. is it serious.

coral look heathly to me ...help.

[yikai]

it's fine.

the skin is not peeling off. that is the colouration. the non-green patches are part of the pattern and when the coral expands, it appears bigger.

a very very healthy piece!

bro. glad to hear tat. bought it from a nice reefer.

. now my elegant seem to look bleaching.....can anybody help how to save it

Maybe not enough light ?

[LaW]

yeah perhaps not enough lighting.

my elegance got that patch when i shifted it down, it didnt have those when more towards the light.

or maybe, which is less likely, too much light.

whats ur stats?

[tagie_tag]

so. is it too much light or too little light. de patch of a side flesh tend to peel off. wat happen. any comment.

Besides, lighting you may want to check on your water parameters. A slight swing of nutrients and temperature could cause elegance to recede and expel zooanthelae (bleach). Looking at your recent pics shows that your elegance signs being stressed by environmental factors.

I agreed with bro Gouldian & that's what I told tagie... Shld be the water condition that cause the burnt... I experience it on my previous elegence and other button coral as well... cos i'm a lazy feerer who do not measure my parameter often..

But anyone can tell bro tagie if the coral has any chance of recover from the burn? My experience told me that there is 'no chance at all'...

[onizukaa]

if it's RBTA yes there is, my got minced up by the wavemaker when it keeps on moving (but left the mouth part), i put it at my frag rack and few months later boomz.

hope your elegance can get through this

there is a good chance imo. i've brought back bleached lps before but with much care and attention. your water perimeters has to be right first.

may i ask if you run a chiller? and what is your set temperature if you do?

yup. i run a chiller. temp ard 26-27.

[straydum]

thats good. i attribute most lps bleaching cases to temperature.

in your case you might want to watch the elegance and see how it goes from here, thats if your water perimeters are in check. supplementary feedings of small pieces of meaty food might help boost recovery but do not overfeed. if it carries on receding in its not a good sign from your latest picture the flesh has already gone of the skeleton edge.

cheers! and good luck!
