I picked this goniopora up a week ago from world wide corals. Was doing great to start with. Last night I noticed it “shedding” a little near the bottom edge. First picture was it this afternoon. Second picture is it 6 hours later. Any ideas what could be causing this? And what I should do to help?

Hard to tell from pictures but looks like a bacterial infection, I would dip in a iodine based solution asap.. once Gonioporas experience issues such as this it can be hard to save them. If you could provide a clearer picture (turn off your blues) it would be helpful determining the problem.
