Dying Brain

[jeanheckle]

OK I purchased this brain, yes purchased even though it looked like this. I thought I might be able to "cure" it. Any ideas other than low lights, low flow and iodine?

Food, food, and more food. What I've done to rescue other brains is to feed frozen chunks of mysis. That way, the coral can grasp a pretty big piece of food, but it will turn into many small and digestable bits before it goes down.

Thanks I will keep you posted.

give it medium light.

It has been eating, I keep a 2litre soda bottle over top so no one steals it's food. The tissue is already starting to plump up. I will post more pics later.

Good luck with that one. Looks like a challenge.

This is Mondays pic, first pic is from Friday, there is some tissue regeneration on the bottom and toward the right photo side,

As long as it has a mouth that is still healthy you can save it. I agree though with the FOOD FOOD FOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!

Definitely looks better than it did, should be encouraging

 

[zoie2]

will it get it's color back?

 

[steelytom]

sure, as long as it lives. Just curious if this one lived. I'd like to see a pick if it did.
