+1, pull it out and put it in an iodine dip for 5-10 mins. Place back in the tank in an area of higher flow and that might help it.

As stated though it's dieing for a reason, what sort of feeding regime are you using?

Sadly Wayne they will not survive. Reputable LFS do not even carry them anymore.
If you can take them back to the LFS

I have seen Goni in every LFS I have been in in the interior so far I do not buy them for a couple reasons. 1 they generally don't live they need a tank that has been establish for a long time as their needs are demanding and the nutrients they need. 2 they tend to cost more than I am willing to spend on a coral It would have to be an amazing coral to spend that much. I will spend allot on coral but there has to be some thing different on the rock with the coral. I have some shrums I have not found on the net for sale so I know what they sell for and I don't ask to much. I generally like to get 1/3 to 1/2 of the going rate I'm not in this to make a tun of money. But would like to get back some thing for my effort. I have a couple other thing that are kind of on the rare side.

yeah it really gave up on me yesterday.
i can't blame my LFS their been so good to me since i started with the hobby. The lesson on this is research first on the web or post on canreef for questions.
Thanks again for all who take the time to answer my question..

thanks,
teddy
