It is in shock due to shipping,which happens to all corals when shipping occirs. It does not look dead or anything or the sort. Dipp it and get it in the water...

Definitely worth trying to revive after dipping. Was that coral just tumbling around in the bag like that during shipping?

Looks like it had a rough trip tumbling around in the bag. If it smells bad it is dead. But just start the acclimation process to see how it reacts, I would not dip it just yet, maybe just acclimate it, is stressed enough. This is what I would do.

Maybe iodine dip, I am not sure with a coral that looks this stressed.
