Hey everyone,

my frogspawn doesn’t seem to be doing well and appears to be peeling. I also noticed holes in the skeleton and they keep growing. I’ve also noticed it up closer to their flesh there are now

All your parameters look good- I don’t know what the little holes could be.

Since parameters are good- next thing I would check it either too much light or too much flow?

move never seen anything personally that could put little holes in skeleton- maybe a little more research on this could point you in the right direction. Did you do a coral dip before you placed it in your tank?
