Rapid decline of this torch to BJD.

Well guys, this torch’s health has rapidly declined within 24hrs to brown jelly disease 🦠

I talked to my LFS and got some iodine/salt based dip that specifically targets this infection but this torch’s chances are slim to none. Sucks that there’s really nothing more I can do, happened out of nowhere. All of my other euphyllia are doing great. Also put some new carbon and did a water change to reduce the e chances of this spreading throughout the tank. Wish me luck and say a prayer for this guy.

Man that’s brutal, BJD moves scary fast. Good call on carbon and the water change, I’d keep that torch isolated and watch the nearby euphyllia close.
