Can you share some pictures of the coral in question?
First thing I'd like to ask is how to you supplement your alkalinity and calcium? And what lighting do you have the coral under? Was it dipped for pests before going into the tank along with other corals?

Is that a bubble coral in the bottom of the picture? They are aggressive and need plenty of room.

The bubble was just added last night.
The sps was already sowing signs a week ago.

Like others said, so many things can go wrong with an sps.

Give that bubble plenty of room. I have one and it killed torches down flow from it.
