  • One of our tanks had a brown jelly outbreak and we use a new treatment to try and stop it
    Website where I purchased cipro:
    aquanestbiotic.com/product/fi...
    Dosing instructions:
    Mix 500mg cipro with 50 ml RODI making stock solution of 10mg/ml
    Multiply tank volume in liters x 0.125 for total dose in mg. Then divide that number by 10 to determine number of ml to dose. Dose every 48 hours times 3 doses.

    I have been researching coral pathogens and in particular brown jelly disease with my university for the last two years. I cannot discuss my findings in depth yet but I will say this - avoid antibiotics.
    Pathogensis is a consequence of abiotic stress which then causes dysbiosis in the coral holobiont where once mutualistic bacterial species become opportunistic. Chase stability.

      @salemclemens6148 I have rock solid parameters and also ICP test regularly. It is not brown jelly I am seeing but from the smell of the dying torch corals I get every month it sure does seem to be an infection. I have lost 4 torch corals randomly in the past 6 months. I am trying to pinpoint what is the trigger. Right now my theory is that it starts when I target feed the torch corals. Not sure if they are getting micro abrasions that is making them more vulnerable to infection or that they just do not want the food being provided and exert too much energy sliming off the debris thus opening up to infections. God help us all if this is some kind of new disease because so far it seems unstoppable and I feel like at this rate we won't be able to grow half the corals we do in a decade passing around these diseases like reef STD's.

      I forgot another theory I have why it seems to have become more common other than reef STD's lol. I feel like a lot more people are carbon dosing nowadays myself included. My previous tank was not carbon dosed and I never witnessed receding flesh like this on torches. Reefing for 10 years now and the on other time I had a torch head die off was on 25g lagoon tank which was dosed nopox.

    Lately, there's been discussions of witch hazel as a possible preventative treatment. Did the aqua biomics say anything about that? Either way, I wish you all the best.

    • @HerbysReef
      @HerbysReef  2 года назад

      I have not asked about that. I have used witch hazel before to help end some stn issues with my sps, but I have never noticed that it has helped with brown jelly. I also have tried dipping euphyllia with brown jelly in a witch hazel dip, and I have never saved them with it. I have only tried it one time though. I think it was a mix of witch hazel, melafix, and chemiclean.

      @@HerbysReef 1 2 3 punch method nice. I think someone also said polyp lab medic which contains potassium chloride might be an option as well. There was a shared post making the rounds of FB a few months back.

    • @HerbysReef
      @HerbysReef  2 года назад

      I have never tried that one. I do dip all new corals in potassium chloride, but that is for pests. Never tried it for brown jelly. I may need to add that to my list
