Have you been losing mostly SPS? Or have other corals also taken a downturn?

You may be able to save the affected sps by crazy gluing the edge between the living and dead tissue....its worked for me a couple times.

You could also try heavily fragging the affected pieces. I tried the glue trick during an RTN/STN event and it didn't work, then I started fragging like mad and managed to save some. Best of luck.

Yeah, I already tried fragging like crazy well above the affected area and it didn't work.

Just my sps. I hope it stops. Could it be the recent outbreak of HA?
