a couple months ago I added torch coral and a week later it started oozing brown and died. at the same i bought some brain coral and brain favites and they were fine, still in my tank. i was reluctant to purchase anything similar to torch coral, but recently i bought some frogspawn with about 5 heads from my LFS. i temp acclimated and i poured a cup of my water into the bag and waited 15 min and did it again after 15 min. then i added it in. it retracted and it seems like a couple of the heads might be falling apart. to make it worse, i have a dottyback thats been pecking at the brown stuff on the skeleton near the head and i dont have a place to seperate them
what am i doing wrong?
sg: 1.026
calcium: between 400-460
ammonia: 0
nitrites: 0
nitrates 20ppm
temp: about 79
i have other types of coral in there too. xenia, zoas, green star polyps, purple and red mushrooms, leather mushrooms, some brain coral, and a devil's hand. they're fine though
