Too much nitrate for that guy? Never kept a Sinularia but I thought they were hard.
 
Look around close in your aquarium and check for nudibranch that prey on leathers. If you're sure that's not the issue then consider dipping it in iodine if you can get it out. That should help with any bacterial issues. You can also check for burrowing worms. And I mean, sometimes corals just get sick and die. Cut off some healthy branches and put them in a container, they'll be growing in no time.
