Purchased 3 scoly’s earlier today and 2 of them are doing fine. 1 of them is not looking to good is this thing a goner?

Parameters
Salinity 1.026
Temp 78
Alk 9
Ph 8.3
Calcium 440
Mag 1360
Nitrate 10ppm
Phosphate .04

Scoly is placed on sand bed with par of 112 with low flow. I temp acclimated him for 45 mins then I drip acclimated for another 40mins. Is this guy a goner? Seems like he’s showing his skeleton and is expelling stuff from its mouth.

Probably fine. Give it a few days.
 
Don’t touch it as long as you think the flow and lighting are okay and it’ll probably open fine tomorrow. Let me know.
