It looks really stressed, if there’s any life left in it. I would start with checking your basic parameters like calcium magnesium Alk and nitrates. If it’s a new tank, it might’ve been to early for coral.

The tan was established for 4 years all my water parameters are good salinity is good I never checked magnesium I bought the tank from someone the tank seems to be healthy

Color means alive. Might be a cyphstratea(spelling?)

It’s a rough looking Hydnophora. Still alive though.

• To answer you question, the coral is alive but is dying.
• When did you purchase the tank?
• You need to get a reliable test kit and test you parameters.
• Just because it was stable doesn't mean it is still stable.

If you moved this tank in the past few months after 4 years of being setup, you disturbed an ecosystem that was doing good and established.

Now you need to figure what is wrong with it.

You figured all that from one photo?

 

[reef lover]

No from his other post ...and i agree the move has caused a mini type of cycle...water changes and stability will be key...

It has like the tip whit and is lo ike a web or flesh I don't know

Have you tested you water parameters again?

 

[Hemmdog]

It’s dead bro lol
