i think my pocillopora is suffering from RTN or possible polyp bail out. i noticed it about a few weeks ago. seems to be progressing very slowly though, unlike the overnight rapid tissue necrosis that ive read about.
i started noticing it when the lights blew out for a week and a half.
if the problem was stress from lack of light, and now it gets sufficient light, will the tissue keep degenerating? or can it grow back. if its something else, can i buy a lugol's dip solution? or do i have to mix it up myselfis this a call for surgery?
i think if this coral dies im done with this hobbie(for now). its just way too time consuming, expensive (another 70 bucks down the drain), and sad. if i were to do it all over again i would save 7 grand and get a real system.
i would be more paitient, 180 g., buy the best skimmer i could afford, get a good quarantine tank, a nice fuge, uv sterilizer, ozone, calc reactor, 4 individually controlled 200 w MH lights...the works.
