My Elegance Coral has not opened for the last couple
of days, and this afternoon I saw definate tissue problems.
It has a light brown film on it in places. So I decided to give
it a iodine dip. But before I did I took a sample of the stuff
and put it under the microscope and this is what I saw.

This is at 400x, since seeing this I've been taking samples
all over the tank, in the wate column, under rocks, out
of holes in rocks, under other corals, in the sand, and a
few other places. The only place I find these is on the Elegance.
After the dip I took some of the dead tissue and relooked
at it and found none left showing signs of life, but who knows
what still is under it.
Are they the problem or living off of the problem?
