    Yes, I was going to say the same Bruce... ;D How is your water quality? Ammonia, nitrites, nitrates? You said you have other shrooms that are doing fine...so, I would go for the light first as well...let us know!

    Manny,
    Sometimes there are things that irritate our corals and they are the only ones affected by it while the others appear to be doing fine. It is frustrating, and sometimes the things we do to make them better, further the irritation... I would try running some carbon to see if there is something in the water that could be filtered out that might be causing it.
    If I had them in my tank I would place them in a low flow, low light area. But, you've already been told that... I can't think of anything else right now that might help. Let us know if anything changes.

    Jim

    Try double checking all water parameters yourself, then at the LFS if they will test water for you. I also do a sanity check on the salinity every now and again. They are trying to tell you something is off! :) And yeah, what he just said too!

    Try also checking the Alk, Ca, and Mg levels and if you can your Strontium levels.

    Just a thought.
