Bleached coral

[Marco V]

What can cause a coral to start to bleach only 2 days once introduced into a system , I added a chalice Saturday but today I notice large spots bleached .

That looks more like STN versus bleaching. How's the water flow. Did you dip the coral? Acclimate?

 

[Marco V]

Sorry for the ignorance but what's STN? I do not dip but I do drip acclimate . It was in a high flow spot .

 

[Marco V]

Can anybody else offer advise ?

stn is soft tissue necrosis. If it continues, take some of the glue you use for corals and frags and glue over the white to try to prevent it from continuing. Might work, might not.
