Sinularia dying

Anyone know what's happening to my Sinularia? I have several spread across the tank and they are all shoveled up and have black tips.

Have you tried manually cleaning the black parts?
@Musovski have you seen anything like this ?

Ive kept Sinularia for a while, and never have I seen this.

It appears to be necrosis. Try to remove the black to keep it from continuing.

welp...that is a bacterial infection.... :( if the black dont turkey baster off then just frag the black off.. itll recover.Only problem is check if you can see flatoworms on it. No dip or any kind of meds will help this black as far as i know. Just frag the black bits off.

Turkey baster worked. I cranked the flow way up to see if that will help.
