Chalice coral concerns

[jk2404]

I obtained a new chalice coral approx 7 days ago and it hasn't come out of shell, was fine in shop. Anything to worry about or is it dead.

It’s really hard to see from the picture but that all looks like bare skeleton to me. Can you please take a different picture under white light?

If you mean the skele i circled. Thats pretty much just skeleton now. Im sorry :*(

hey @crazyfishmom see updated pic attached...

If that’s brown algae on it, it’s dead

It doesn't appear to be brown or covered over the whole coral

It helps if you can turn the blue light off, leave only the white light on. Your picture is too blue to see any colour, we only see skeleton.

Yes please! I can't tell anything in the pictures either, except maybe some skeleton popping through on the ridges and on the edges. New one is blurry as well... :(

Thanks all for advice, I have chosen to dispose of the chalice, RIP
