oh but the h1n1 virus come from a pig and transfered to a human. This is one of the most dangerous situation when a virus goes from an animal, chicken or pig, to a human.

If it is brown jelly and if it is caused by a vibrio bacteria, it could spread to other corals around it. I have seen it go from a duncan to a sps and I managed to save the duncan with a peroxyd dip then but lost the sps.

Recently I used furan 2 to cure RTN on a sps and it worked well. I would suggest next time you get such affected coral, just try a 3 minutes dip with furan 2 in a little container with tank water.

A lot of parasites are specie specific but it seem bacterias are not.
