Default Need some advice
I need some advice on how to care and hopefully grow back some sick ricordea coral. It is a piece i got from a friend for free, and its a beautiful bright orange piece but its very small and dieing around the edges. I'd like to try and save it, hopefully have it grow. Any tips??

Ok I'll give it a try. if i raise the iodine level in my tank, will that affect any of the other fish or coral thats in there? I don't have a quarantine tank for him hes just kind of sitting at the bottom, avoiding flow right now.
