Over the weekend, the temperature in my tank hit 90degrees F. Now, I have a sun coral that is dieing. The tissue around a few of the heads is wasting, and coming loose from the skeleton underneath. On several others, the mouths are hanging open, and the skeleton can be seen underneath.
I would like to leave it in the tank to see if any of it will recover, but I do not want to leave it if it is going to fowl the tank. Should I be worried about the dieing coral releasing toxins into the tank, or even an ammonia spike due to the large lump of rotting tissue?
