Saving my galaxy

[ccantlin]

Earlier this week I come home to all of my corals freaking out. After doing some tests my copper was at .5. Scary number I know.

All of the corals I transferred to the frag tank are looking better but the galaxy coral. Half of it is covered in a pink film.
How do I save it??

I`m wondering if it is the brown slime disease. Google that. I`m thinking iodine bath.

That looks like brown jelly to me. Also want to ensure all of that 'jelly' is removed from the system.

I removed all visible 'jelly' last night. But when I came downstairs to check on the tank half of the jelly came back. Would it be possible to frag this coral

You can, but a coral dip will be necessary to try to solve the problem. In such dip, you'll want to remove as much of the jelly as possible to avoid it returning.

What would be the best product to use in the dip

I've only ever used coralRX.

I`ve always had good luck with iodine baths for that.
