Angry Brown Jelly disease

I just discovered that my Torch has brown jelly disease.

Does anyone know if it can spread to other corals that are not hammer, frogspawn or torches?

I am mostly worried about my acros

Thanks!!!

souldnt affect acros, best thing to do is remove the euphillias, i find dipping them in a peroxide / tank water mix and removing all the jelly works sometimes, i usually suck as much of it out with an airline tube before i remove them in order to stop it from releasing in the tank
