Mushrooms Killing SPS
Ok so I noticed a mushroom on the base of a sps colony and notice it completely discolored the area. It has almost bleached it to death. Are mushrooms treatable or do I look at replacing everything to dry rock?

I tried cutting, all kinds of stuff. Like people said, aptasia kiler works best. Syringe with kalk or hot water, or the zapper both work. Mine are plague like in my tank, take over zoa's that are taking over sps, it's all out warfare. I made a DIY aptasia zapper and have been happily zapping since.

The zapper is fun, biggest pain i found was getting a prong that wouldn't dissolve after some use. I ended up with 2 cut off fish hooks and everything's been great.
