I recently got some coral gift from one friend but they didn’t make it and now it’s bleached and like dead. See below attachment for before and after.

Ph:8.4
Sanility:1.020

Should I throw it or leave it in the tank to prey for miracle to happen?

Is that the same frag in both pics? I'm confused. Also I'm no expert but isn't that a bit low for salinity? 1.025-1.026 typically..

Yeah first thing I noticed is salinity at 1.020 .
I've left my torch skeletons in tank after they died,not because thought they come back to life,just to remind myself I've tried 3 now and longest they lived is 3 months so don't get anymore.

Not sure If it was my tank not mature enough or they was wild torches which I read often don't do so well .idk

It's dead Jim

Toss it or leave it. Doesn't really matter, don't expect a Miracle with that one.

1.025/1.026 is your target.

well, pray for something else but not for this miracle brother.
Before adding more corals please check your parameters or I guess more corals will end up dead.

just my 0.02
