Hello,

May someone help ID what was on my torch coral. It had white spots and tiny black dots inside the tentacles. I never seen them move but it has spread onto my other torch and hammer corals.

I dip everything inside Coral RX, Seachem Reef Dip, and hydrogen peroxide. Then placed into QT.

I have 1 other torch and 4 hammers for over a month. Then added a torch colony that died within a week. I throw away the whole colony before all the heads died.

I’ve attached pictures of the coral and circled in red the black dots. Also attached is my water parameters.
