Help my brain is diying

I dont know whats going on i just bought this coral a week ago and the part that is diying was closer to the lights but it was still at almost the bottom of my tank. Any clue on what is going on with this. Its my first brain coral

 

Well, the skeleton is clearly showing and the rest looks withered. I don't think it will make it. Sorry. LPS do not generally recover when their skeleton is showing like that. You could try a low flow area and try feeding it.

 

what and how do you feed them. i normally just put in my liquid stuff

 

It needs big meaty chunks of shrimp or silversides or the like

 

I've had a bubble, blastomussa, frog spawn and acan lord die, and they all started to show their skeletons, then went down hill fast. They wouldn't accept food and acted strangely. It sucks to lose a coral, but live and learn. I hope it does survive, but I wouldn't get my hopes up.

 

All you can do is keep those open brains on the sand but once it is showing the skeleton like yours its true its downhill. When you but one make sure it is very plump looking and then feed it every week meaty food with your turkey baster. They have tentacles that will come out and grab the food and pull it in.

 

Was the skeleton showing like that when you bought it?

 

If the skeleton wasnt showing when you bought it; then perhaps maybe you injured the edge of the brain coral. If you cut it with a fingernail or rock edge or anything for that matter, they can get bacterial infections which cause them to die and such.
Good luck and best thing to remember is, research corals before you get them so you know exactly what to look for and waht not to do.
