Bad HH on my sun?
I got a new sun coral today, and when I took a closer look at it, it looks like there's tiny, brown bugs all over it. Also, a few clear flatworms. I dipped it, but nothing came off but a bristleworm and some pods.
What is it?   Thanks

Those look like it's digestive track. That coral doesn't look very good. Make sure you feed it well tonight, and for the next month until it regains its tissue.
Here's an example of coral stomach filaments. http://www.theepochtimes.com/n2/imag...ralfeeding.jpg

Thanks for the reply. I thought that's what it was, too, but it's on the sides of the coral, too...
 I'll try to feed it. One head is starting to open.

Looking much better today. You were right, Ryan, thanks again.
 I think it got roughed up on the way home.
