Is it dead?

I had a disbalance in my water and my Duncan closed completely and this is what it looks like now. Did I kill it? Can it be saved?

You can still see the polyps in the skeleton, they're deeply retracted, but they're still there. Did you get your water parameters back in check? If so just give it time, they'll come back out :)

They should come back to normal.

It's very stressed, but If you got everything sorted out it should recover.

Last week I feel at 25% water change this week ima do a 10% before I do the 10% I’m going to test and see where everything is at. Hopefully it comes back. I try to keep feeding normal so hopefully it hangs in there.

So I tested yesterday all my parameters are good except for nitrate. It’s at 40ppm some days it’s at 20ppm. My rocks have always had some green algae on them maybe cuz of the nitrate what’s a solution to lowering nitrate besides weekely water changes? I was thinking chaeto? Lmk thanks
