Hello,
This coral was fine until yesterday, something must have hurt him. Can I save him?

Plates are pretty hardy. My son cut ours into 9 pieces (only one had a mouth) They all lived and the other 8 grew a mouth. We also had one glued to a rock and a couple months after we pulled it out, a dozen new ones sprouted on the rock.

Looks like it got stung by neighbor coral. Im not a fan of too many corals on the sandbed as sand irrititates them. Moderate light and water flow is their liking and occasional feedings.
alk 8-9
mag 1300
mag 1250-1300
temp 77-79
salinity 1.025

Check parameters make sure salinity and temp are fine then move it to isolated sand bed area and direct feed if needed couple times a week. Seems to be the concensus here
