I have not done a water change in a month in half so I made one and never will I skip on it again :(? Maybe it was missing something that I couldn’t read since everything had beeen okay I just thought I could get away with it :(
My mistake
 
Hard to say, has it been damaged recently? I had a stunner chalice that got a little bleached from macro algae growing over it. Even after I improved the situation the stunner continued to die.
I have had similar experiences with other coral. I have had two identical colonies in a tank and one died when the other grew. Corals are tricky sometimes.
