Hey guys I received an acro frag that arrived white and water inside bag was hazy. Does anyone know if the coral is alive or dead? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Contact seller and get credit. But don't throw it away if you can see any indication of polyps. If you do, the coral is likely still alive and can be recovered if you feed it a few times per week. In any event, you have little to lose by feeding it and trying. I had one just like this recover and grow into a large colony.
