Medium light and low flow. Hand feed twice a day and make sure they take in the food. They look done though man.

I dip everything in Coral Rx Pro, it makes sure there aren't any pests and can help with infections.

I had a rainbow brain that had just as much skin left on. Didnt think it would make it. I moved it to another tank and in a few months it was healthy again as nothing ever happened.

LPS is usually very forgiving, as far as the dips, they have instructions right on the bottle, I personally usually go a little stronger and longer.

Coral RX works really great!

Dip in coralrx, move it to a low flow, low light area. Be very careful that shrimp and crabs don't start picking at it (because they will, trust me on this). Target feed every day or two. I've seen lps come back that looked dead for sure. As long as there is dna, there is hope.
