Brown Jelly disease on Goniapora

Argh! After posting two days ago that I had two corals (a hammer and a frogspawn) that had been gradually receding with no real reason - NOT brown jelly disease, I just woke up this morning and saw my goniapora had brown jelly ooze around half of its base and was missing almost a quarter of the polyps!! It was absolutely fine yesterday!

I turned off my flow, siphoned off the goo with tubing, did a dip of 30/70 peroxide/tank water, rinsed it in tank water, and then did a 15% water change.

Any advice? It doesn't look like it has spread to the other corals. I still don't think the hammer and the frogspawn had BJ- as it seems based on my first experience here with brown jelly, that it is easy to identify. I put the goni back in after the dip and the water change. Do I just kiss it goodbye and hope it doesn't affect the rest of my tank? Is there anything else I can do at this point? Boy that sucks. The goniapora is one of my favorites!!
