I had a bubble tip go on the move a few days ago and as you can see from the picture it has killed some other coral in its path..... im noticing that the white is taking over!!!! Is there a way to stop the death????? I don't want the whole thing to die I assumed that the dead parts would grow back. But now its going white in places where the anemone never touched

Definitely remove the dead white parts. It is likely the white bleaching will spread
 
I just let my anemones kill my coral if they want. It eventually grows back. Or it is now part of my rockwork and I can just put a new coral there. Monti cap is cheap and u can upgrade to a cooler color of it
 
I agree completely with @James M. I have had new growth on what appeared to be dead Monti cap in the past, but if it's spreading, it's safest to get rid of the affected area.

Thanks. I did remove as much white as I could but woke up this morning and the whole main piece is white... managed to break off a few smaller pieces and move them away which are doing OK as of now.

This is true unfortunately I don't see it very often and my LFS let alone any good colors. Do you know of a trust worthy place to buy from online?
