"Excursion"

I'd not dip so much, could cause unneeded stress. I found this from a previous post by mframe who had the disease: "Posted 23 April 2012 - 08:21 PM In the last three years I have lost three very large, previously very healthy torch colonies to brown jelly. Here's what I have learned: If you have other corals of the Euphyllia family or similar corals (frogspawn, hammers) - REMOVE THE INFECTED TORCH IMMEDIATELY. brown jelly is highly contagious and will wipe them all out. When you remove the infected coral in order to either frag off the sick heads or to remove it as a whole, place a ziploc bag into the tank and cover the coral with it before trying to move it. Otherwise the jelly will drift off like mucous and land throughout your tank. You want to contain as much of it and remove it as possible. Frag off any sick heads at the branch of the skeleton. Any heads that are "iffy" should go as well, it's not worth the risk. You can break the skeleton easy with a pair of wire cutters. Do not put the healthy frags back into the same location in the tank. The original coral was made vulnerable either by too much or lack of flow, and the jelly is most likely still in the water column. A small QT tank should be used just for the healthy heads and new salt water should be used in the tank versus using existing tank water. I wish you the best. I have tried dipping with a variety of different projects, and the most success I had was with Lugol's solution." Dave-
