Hello all!

Two out of three polyps in this Blasto frag are happy and open every day. However, one is disintegrating over time. It is slowly being eaten away, but there are no coral eating pests in the tank. Everything else is happy including other Blastos in tank.

If I don’t cut this dying polyp off will the problem eventually find its way into the other polyps? Should I leave it alone? Is it normal for a single polyp to die every now and again? Thanks!
