I’ve been a lurker on this forum for a few years now, but finally decided to make an account.
Recently my area had a major storm, and my system was without reliable power for 5 Days. Everything in my system (fish, sps coral, and even my non-photosynthetic gorgonian) seemed to have faired really well. Some things seem to have taken off even with the additional water changes and unintended tank blackout. While it sucked to go through, my triage plan worked really well. (Though I have ideas to make it simpler and more efficient in the future)
The one thing in my tank that has been struggling is my Toad Stool Leather. Karl (as it was so lovingly referred to in our household) used to have amazing polyp extension and was looking really healthy. But now his edges look tattered like something has been munching on him or like he is generally unwell.
Advice or insight would be greatly appreciated. Open to any thoughts or additional questions as this hobby is very dynamic and can sometimes have many possible causes.
