Favia problems

[daniellin]

I have this Favia for more than 3 years and it has been doing great until recently.
Many light dots ( whitish ) appear on it's body, they are more like tiny goose bumps and I am hoping that these are not the early signs of skeleton exposure....
All other corals are doing well.
Thanks for any inputs.

I can't help you but that is a lovely looking favia. Good job. I hope it recovers.

IME sometimes they just wanna suck in like leather corals do. Maybe try and target feed if you don’t already, it might just be running a little low. (I always try to give it a tiny amount at first, right before the lights turn off. Then that usually gets them to extend the tentacles out.)

I hope it will bubble up for you soon, very nice colony.

Yeah, your suggestion reminds me that I usually feed her Reef-roids at least once a week and stop doing that for past 2-3 months.
Before, her tissues are puffy and even show green color on the edge of new growth ( she is a Red Favia for a long time ).
I will back to feed her to see if this is the scope...
Thanks !
