New coral ID/ID of....

[Jaycen B.]

Just picked this up today from zoa eating nubi infested tank it is now in QT. I believe it is a Diploastrea, or moon coral.

?1 how long should it be in QT to make sure I do not get these?

Then I flipped it over and seen this, any thoughts on what this may be.

The zoa nudis won't affect that coral, but if any hitched in on the rock it's on and you have zoas in the tank...good call with the qt. A couple of weeks should be plenty of time for observation.

Could ba a favia, and that looks like tunicates underneath.

Those could be eggs
I would definitely scrape them off immediately

Did you dip in coralRX or any dip?

[Jaycen B.]

I dipped it in brightwells medicoral @ 150% dose.
Oh and that stuff underneath was/is incased in a gelatinous goo.

u posted that on ARC! just noticed it, dip that bad boy in coral rx then take a tooth brush to it to remove the eggs, thats what i do and i have never damaged any corals, just be careful with it!

And it is in the family Faviidae, Genus Diploastrea I think.

HI John. out of coral RX I'll go get some more!
