Given that I don't know if its been tried before, I'd only do corals evidently infected. No idea on dosage, we'd have to experiment.

Im reading that Chloramphenicol is an antibiotic that works but only problem is that it is unattainable.

Correct, not in production anymore I believe. Cipro is much mucb easier to get a hold of.

Well I think it's down to 2 pieces that have it and look pretty bad may just remove them and cut my losses. If there is any more I would like your assistance with the dips. You all have been very helpful.

Rick I didn't save it. I think it's still in my inbox though.

No I didn't. My only thought at this point is that my gfo needed changing. It was very strange because it happened overnight.

Not sure this happened right after I bought a gold torch as well about a month ago. All the flesh just hangs out of the skeleton in a large mass

This seems to be happening on a weekly basis now. Just before a water change Ill loose 2-3 heads. I will monitor what I need to start dosing.

Bought 2 hammers last week. Dipped them and put them in a medium flow medium/low light area of the tank to get them acclimated but 1 of the 2 already dissolved. Looked good then gone. Strange.

Been dosing and feeding normally.
