Whats Wrong With My Coral?

This has been gradually going on for 2 days now, is that normal or does this happen faster.

 

Would an iodine dip help or hurt in the event this isnt just a shedding?

 

By the pictures i would agree its shedding. Has it decreased any in the way that it has the "shedding" look?

 

Its got a little bit of a shedding look. its still white on the top but it deffinetely has a film thats coming off of him. thank you all for the info and help, if the condition changes I will definetely post it.

 

I just wanted to update everyone, he is deffinetely doing better, the white is now a dull brown and the shedding is gone and his is returning to his normal texture.
Thank you all for the help.

 

great to hear!

Thanks for the update.

To answer your other question, how long it takes can vary. For instance, my Colts may close anywhere from 3 days to a week. But when they open and shed, they're bigger and more beautiful than ever before. This usually happens every 6 to 8 weeks.

Cheers

 

Almost completely back to normal, thanks guys for the encouragement.

 

Looks much better.

Can you list what interventions you did. Or was it just incidence of waiting for it to shed.

TIA

 

I just made sure the water quality was good and kept an eye on him, everyone here said it was a natural thing so I left it alone and just did what i normally did and he got better. What a trip.
