I just got an aussie lord. Looks like it got a little damaged during the shipping process. There are 3 polyps total. One has what looks like skeleton showing pretty bad, other one has what looks like a little trying to show. Third looks good. They are all opening up normal. And have feeder tentacles out. Anyone think I need to worry about them? If the 2 damaged ones die what are the chances of the 3rd surviving? I have 2 other frags that are doing well.

All three heads accepted small pieces of mysis today also.
 
I wouldn’t be surprised if all recover. If water conditions are good, it should be fine.

That's not shipping damage. That's the (unavoidable) damage caused by being fragged off a colony. The flesh is nice and puffy so I think your frag will be just fine. I have some acan frags that were fragged soooo much worse, almost laughable, but they are all still kicking.
