Coral Rescue?

I've always had good success with coral revival using live feeds in the water column targeted at that specific coral (jets off).... kind of babying it for a bit. Also if it goes all the way, don't remove it from the tank *unless it's an absolute must* I have found that most corals I've 'lost' will come back on me... including one that I (lazily) left in there for 9 months just as I was going to toss it out, it made it's come back.

 

I know dipping them in Iodine is said to help. I don't know, but you can do some research on it more. It did help with mine and it recovered alright.

I would say it really depends on what the issue is. Does it just need some loving tender care, or was it bleached out from too much light?

Pictures and what environment it came from, would be helpful.

 

It was bought from Petco in coral ville and they use the marine land led

 

that favia looks gone to me.

 

The favias and favites are also often called 'closed brains'. You can check on liveaquaria.com for the many other names they may be called.

 

There is a lot of damage. If there are eyes in the middle, I would just let it be, keep it in a place with flow and don't touch it!

 

yeah I would echo what chris said... flow and no touching.... give it some time to bounce back. you never know, I've had one gone all the way **nothing visible** and bounce back.
