Did i kill an unkillable coral?

[Jake_the_reefer]

So I wanted to test if my 10g was ready for coral so I threw in my pulsing xenia and kenya tree to see how they do, I did proper acclimation and made sure the parameters matched my 20g, I'm thinking it died from my damsel attacking it because I noticed it messing with the xenia. The kenya tree is doing fine no signs of stress. This isn't me worrying about what I should do to recover it its moreso asking if it's dead.
