You can dip in furan2 as well , be careful not to spread it around the tank though when you remove the coral for dip , I use a small siphon hose to remove and siphon any mucus and then gently remove the coral trying not to disturb it. It can spread to weakened corals if allowed to.

Good advice. Some people use peroxide dip too. Kills bateria and floats thd jelly off the coral

I rinse under the tap with lukewarm water first to flush out any dead tissue/brown stuffs. Then peroxide.

Maybe... But I've probably rinsed thousands of corals over the past few years to great success.

my wall hammer coral was having brown jelly disease a few days ago and it killed 1/3 of its tissue. I put it in a bucket with a couple drops of Lugols iodine and turkey blast the **** outta it. So far it looks rly happy now and i dont see anymore jelly.
