    Nem advice: To pull & Treat, or let it be?

    Howdy all! I'm looking for some second opinions on whether or not to pull & treat this nem: http://reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2447089

    It's my first time having an unhappy nem, and the last thing I want to do is further stress it by treating it with antibiotics unnecessarily.

    That looks bad man. Sorry to hear about it. I would pull and treat. That looks to far gone to recover on its own. Are you sure its getting enough light? Also, did you use to feed it?

    I've pulled it and been treating it with Septra for 6 days now. Recovering well! It's firmly attached in the HT now, and has been more picky about its position. It's also stopped secreting lots of mucus.

    She was fed at least weekly, and had a Radion G3 Pro for light. Moving shock seems to be the culprit. I'm going to ask for more experienced hands' help next time I move for sure!
