RTN treatment?


I think one of my acros has RTN caused by our lovely power loss. Is there a treatment for this or should I just frag frag frag and rip out the dead coral? This has been going on for about 2 days now, slowly making its way across the acro. I can't say my tank is overrun by SPS, but there are a few and I would like to minimize the damage.

as far as i know it is frag, frag, frag. i lost a couple of frags on an order due to RTN. 1 had RTN that just stoped. it has now since grown over the RTN'd areas. it was to small to frag, since it was already a frag. all of this occured in about a day.

Check out this website they have a dip that they make and use. They say it works about 75% of the time. Something to maybe try.

If dipping in Warner Marine's RTN coral dip didn't work and before fraging it out, we were able to save the coral by drastic means. Use super glue over the bottom of branch of the coral, even up to about 1/8th inch of the healthy part. Trick learned from Mojo, and most of the time, it worked.
