How is your other corals doing?

I would do one or two more tests to reassure that the nitrate level is 0 each time. Then I would add up some nitrate since you don't want 0 in the long run. How severe was your dino outbreak?
Other corals seem to be doing ok.
 
Good that you're double checking. For saving this coral, I would have chopped of the living parts and re-glue them to the rockwork and throw away the dead skeleton, or crush it down to sand.

i tried and it did not make it as well. my other acro did the same yesterday. so I have lost both acros.
 
Sorry to hear that. Acros are usually the first ones to take the hits of imbalances and disruptions of water parameters.
