Does this look like it is dying? It is fluorescent in about half of it, but it used to be full circle. It is also very white and I can see some of the skeleton. It is obviously on the sand bed, so not getting strong light and is not getting heavy flow. All my parameters are good. Any ideas?

Oh no it looks like its on its way out 🥲 is that a plate coral? If it is, just leave the skeleton in the tank sometimes they produce babies from their skeletons. Just move it in low flow and low light

Oof that definitely looks stressed! It’s super common for LPS corals on the sand bed to lose tissue when flow and lighting aren’t enough. That white skeleton showing is never a good sign but since you said your water params are solid maybe bumping the flow gently could help? Also, sometimes these guys just hate sitting on sand because it can irritate their base or cause them to get buried a bit. If you can frag it or move it to a spot with moderate flow and better indirect lighting it might perk back up. I had a Duncan do something similar until I relocated it off the sand and gave it a

I didn’t know anything about it, but the guy I bought it from at a frag show told me to put it on the sand with low flow and that’s what I did. 🙄
