Acro arrived bleached, keep or trash?

Title says it all pretty much, although looking at the coral at night now with lights out, and with a UV flashlight, I can see some life in the tip of the coral. I have no means of cleanly fragging this guy. Is it worth keeping?

I’m cheap so I’d dip and bring er back to life. Definitely possible

I'd like to keep it for sure. Is an Iodine dip the usual for acro?

If it has stabilized, it’ll come back. I’d give it a week or two to see if it’s stable and then frag the tip off and on to a new plug.

I’ve seen much worse survive.

Its 100% bleached this morning. Had to blow off algae that already built up.

ive had luck with cutting off the good part and glue it on a new plug - if you do it early enough.

they will come back.

Ill keep it in the tank for a little while, but as of now it's 100% goner.

That's a goner. Add it to the boneyard.

I've had poor luck saving one dying from bottom up but have had some luck when dying from top down. Not sure why that is.

 

[Krux]

My rule of thumb is once I see algae I tops them, otherwise I give them a chance
