Hi guys my dad recently setup a new tank, and it's been up and running for about 2 months now. We recently added our first corals which were a load of soft corals from a person who was shutting down his aquarium. When we bought the leathers they were all closed in his setup. After a day in our setup this particular leather opened up, but after three days has gone completely black. Is this the leather shedding?

Leathers like good amount of water flow and light, they also like nutrients in the water. Can you share your water parameters and type of lighting and flow?
