mike_B Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Hi, there is this red substance on my candy cane I think might be a pest. there was another head where the hermit crab is in the photo that I cut off because it was receding and looked in bad shape. it would have been also right next to this red stuff. anyone know what it is? or how to remove it?

jservedio Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Try peeling it off - it might be a decently sized flatworm. If the coral was receding, dying flesh is like a dinner bell to all kinds of creatures that live in our tank. If it is a flatworm, it isn't what caused your coral to recede, but is just cleaning up the mess. Quote Link to comment
