want2benano-5gal Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 hello again, this is about my 5gal. I have 3 corals that do not look so well these last couple of days and there are the same tiny red spots around the base of them and they are not picky they are on my Blue Ricordia, Hammer Head and 3 heads look punny because, and they are also on one of my Zoos at the base. Please again, HEEELLLpppp I do not want to lose these corals Thanks, B Link to comment
want2benano-5gal Posted September 9, 2005 Author Share Posted September 9, 2005 Oh, also it does not look like coraline. It is invasive to these corals Link to comment
formerly icyuodd/icyoud2 Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 do the spots move? how about a pic? Link to comment
Caesar777 Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 Cyanobacteria? (Look that up) Or maybe it's some harmless growth unrelated to the corals closing? How's your water quality? Link to comment
want2benano-5gal Posted September 10, 2005 Author Share Posted September 10, 2005 water all tests normal and I don't belive it is cyano. I think maybe it is coralline because every thing purked up, I had a emerald crab die days before and I thought I had him out right away but maybe that is what messed with the way they looked. Thanks any way. B Link to comment
jenniebutterfly Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 i think you may have red planaria (red flatworms) suck them off with a turkey baster, give your zoas a fresh water dip, and then get yourself some flatworm exit, as they die, start sucking them out, they are toxic when they die. sometimes, the white ones will eat the red ones and take care of the problem.
