    This coral has been in this spot for over 6 months, and did very well. Now it seems to be dying. Any advice?

    Temps steady at 78 degrees. Lights are only a little over a year old.parameters i'm not really sure about, but all other corals seem to be doing fine. I'm not at home, so i can't check the parameters. I'm going to have my wife go to the LFS, and have them run some tests. I won't be back home till friday.

    Your overdue for new lights........On the left part of the pic, that is recession right? Put him in a low flow area and spot feed him everyday. If you can, get yourself some TMPCC, Restor or Revive and give him a little dip.

    I may be a little late jumping in on this thread but did you notice a brown, jelly like substance anywhere on the coral? Is the coral still alive?
