Okay so I made a rookie mistake once again!

I finally had sps encrusting and growing in my tank. I have 3 anemones that I want to mow get rid of so I pointed a powerhead at them. Apparently it was hitting the backside of the acro also and skin ended up peeling off.

Will an acro recover from that or am I done for and need to start new?

I will get pics when lights come on.
 
Okay here’s some pics
