PEST ID - Holes & tubes in LPS skeleton

[3vette]

Had this torch for a week, it did have holes in the skeleton but looked clean. Did a coral rx & iodine dip. Now 2-3 of the holes look like they have tubes growing out from inside the skeleton?

What is it? How do I fix it?

Am i early enough to move it to qt or did i just expose all my other torches in that week?

Could be growing new heads.

Doesn’t that usually grow out of fleshbands? I seen them on frogspawn but my torches usually split heads.

Doesn’t really explain the holes because I think that’s related

I mean my body’s not 100% perfect prolly like 98% lol so maybe it’s like an imperfection in its skeleton, I wouldn’t overthink it looks nice and healthy!

I think this is what it is, I read ivermectin might work but I’m debating keeping it even though it’s a nice coral.

i l know a person who dealt with them using ivermectin and was successful
