    I have a pink foggy jelly looking stuff between a few small zoa type polyps. Is this a fungus or something else? It doesn't seem to be spreading and the polyps are opening just fine. I apologise about not having a picture my camera always focuses on the glass when I try to zoom in. What do you think?

    I could be, clean off what you can and then dip the frag in an iodine solution. That should get rid of it.

    Notes on the camera, always take pictures at the largest size the camera will take, clean the glass inside and out before taking the picture, turn off flow if you have stuff floating so the camera can not focus on that. Get the camera as close to the glass as possible when taking the picture.

    I never thought to turn off the powerheads to reduce the flow! I will try this next time I take some photos of the tank. Thanks for the tip Steve. ;D

    Will do. Thanks for the camera tips. It was getting very frustrating to take pics.
