    Mods...I am not sure about rules regarding linking other sites...so please remove if I am breaking a rule!;D

    I found this site and it is awesome! Goes through and explains and has pictures of tissue loss, tissue discoloration, growth abnormalities, comprised health and other health issues of a reef. Has pictures and explanation of such things as predators, band disease, ATN, bleaching, sponges, and many different coral diseases.

    It is intended to be used by divers in the actual reefs, however I think it has a lot of useful info on it. Doesnt say what the treatment is...but if you can ID it then you can research further
