    I just purchased this today and noticed this "moldy" looking stuff on my Yellow Leather Coral. It was not there before I put it in the tank. My water Parms are all WNL. All my other corals in the tank are doing wonderful with no signs whatsoever of any type of distress or disease. What could this possibly be? Anyone else seen this before?

    corals have a chemical warfare with each other, leathers are famous for it. also keep in mind the water at the LFS isnt always as pure as ours.

    Thanks for the Information. So does this mean that it will go away?
