1 big scoop to a cup is good. Be generous. mix it well before u put the coral in. Use a turkey Baster to gently blow the brown jelly, slime, and dead tissue away. Normally I do just cc for the shroom if it is melting /has brown jelly. If the coral hasn’t improved or at least stabilized, follow up with iodine dip the next Day. If there’s brown jelly again, repeat cc dip. I do 30 min. If you have brown jelly u need to do it right now. Like get off your phone and do it now

Ok. Will do. Do you think we need to treat the whole tank with cc as well?

I’ve done it multiple times with a tank full of shrooms with no ill effect. I’ve also done it with a tank with shrooms and other stuff. Shrooms did well, the other stuff got pissed, nothing died. It’s an extreme measure I would only recommend if you have a big brown jelly outbreak and have a lot of lps/shrooms in the same tank. Otherwise, wc and UV. CC will only take care of brown jelly. If you have other stuff going on cc isn’t gonna fix it.

Whole tank treatment would be advisable. I suggest even to do it proactive after this periodically throughout the year
