I am new to the community and to saltwater reefing. I have an AIO 15 G that is about 2 months old. I bought a 2 head torch at the Reefapalooza on the weekend and it went all brown and all the tentacles were covered with it. Overnight the one head was white and just a skeleton on one head and over the course of the next day the 2nd head was all gone. I took it out and tossed it as I was not sure it if was contagious. I checked all parameters in the tank and the ammonia and nitrates were a bit high so I did a partial water change. My tank has also got the original torch I got and it seems ok. I have 2 clown fish, a goby, 2 peppermint shrimp and a few hermit crabs and snail. Everything was good until I got frags at the show. I have a zoanthid I got and it looks like it might have some of this brown starting on it. The brown stuff also has like hair looking strands on it too. Any thoughts if I have brought in something that will kill my other corals and if I can do anything?
I am using an AI 16 light which my son helped my set up the cycle and color on. He is a reefer with over a year experience and it is because of him I got hooked on this. I have a hygar wave maker.
