    I honestly wouldn't do anything stronger than an iodine dip. In my experience some of the others dips can be a little harsh on coral especially when they aren't doing well to begin with. Iodine should clean it out to make any recovery easier.

    I really thought mine was going to be a goner... so little flesh left and so much skeleton... I just left it alone in the shaded area and am only now seeing regrowth.

    sooo glad I didn't give up on it.

    nope. can't get the upload button in photobucket to show up on my ubuntu 9.04 system - my windowz box is under repair (I've got it strewn about in my office)

    my cell phone could do it, but the pics aren't good enough to really show the recovery, just that there's a chalice in the pic ;)

    not sure what the problem is in my ubuntu box. photobucket says "ubuntu is not supported" and their support ends there. Thing is, it works fine on my brother's ubuntu box... tards.
