![]() What is your Alk DKH? Frag off the dying part and just keep the LH side heads (in picture)that are still healthy. It also looks like it might be getting too much light? Is that possible?

![]() I had a candycane doing very well, then suddenly heads started to die... then I noticed a hermit on one of the dead/dying heads. Pop into the sump. Candy now stable again. Nasty little coral-munching crab!
Something to check, anyhow. |

![]() Thanks for the reply's everyone. Parameters are all good, I've been battling low alk for a while but it's never below 7 dkh. There is nothing in the area that could sting it. I upgraded lights from 175w MH to 250w MH but that was about a month ago. Could it take that long to see adverse affects? All other corals are doing fine. It was doing very well and had grown from 4 heads to 15 and then over the last 48hrs this has happened.

![]() Likely not the alk as that is close to NSW. 175 to 250 is actually a big jump. I would move it to a location that is less bright with only med flow. Separate the healthy from the dying ASAP.

![]() Um... That really doesn't look like a candycane. Looks more like a branching bubble coral
I would also move it lower in the tank. Frag off the dead parts and try to target feed it. J |
