Leather coral DYING!!! I need help.

[jarian]

Hi,

I have a golden leather coral and a few days ago I noticed the stalk and some of the cap was wasting away. Upon futher investigation there were two nudibranchs living and feeding on it. I've removed the little buggers but the area is still not healing properly. Is there any thing I can do to save my leather coral?

Thanks

where there are two, there may be more- especially if they managed to burrow INTO the stalk. Best bet would to cut some frags before is disintergrates further.

Dip it in some lugol's. It should kill the nudibranchs. If the branches continue wasting away, cut off the dying parts.
