Chances of this coral coming back?
Had this dude for a while now, lately polyps are very small and continually growing a brown algae substance on it (maybe brown jelly disease?) blow it off daily looking this crappy for 3 weeks now, revive did nothing, should I just scrap him?

it looks like a goniopora. i can see a few polyps left so it's not completely dead yet but in a bad condition. i'd just leave it there even though chances of this coral coming back are very slim.
just my .02.

This is the best at curing brown jelly if you catch it in time.
