Hello - I received this pink lemonade frag a couple of weeks ago and it arrived in bad shape.

Might be a silly question, but is the frag dead? What’s throwing me off is that I would have thought to be fully white if it died.

Thanks!

I agree, need a photo under white light to really see how it is doing

Thanks everyone. How long before I’ll know it’s truly dead? If no change in 2-3 weeks or possibly months?
 
Doesn’t hurt to just leave it in! But if there’s diatoms or any type of algae growing on it ur free to toss it. When they die the skeleton is exposed and is white. Than it turns brown from algaes

Sorry, man that looks pretty dead to me. I think the only color we’re seeing is reflections of the light and maybe some algae that has grown over the skeleton.
 
Was a nice extra but lil to none left now
