Not sure what to try and save this coral. I've tried more and less light. And more and less flow. 1 week between switching. Can't seem to make this coral happy. I have 2 digitata's and a rbta and they are growing and thriving. Alk is steady between 7.4 to 7.6. Mag is 1380. Cal is 480. Nitrates and p04 are kept low as well. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

The coral itself is white and cream coloured. It also has a black patch on it as well. It's just progressively getting worse by the week. There is some polyps on it but they don't extend very far

Agreed. If you want to save it, cut off the good part, dip them, then put them on frag disk and toss the dead part out

I have had a couple like this and they came right back. They need to be higher up towards the light- Dont force bright light on them.
Moderate water flow, alk - 8-9, MAG 1300, CA 450, Salinity 1.025 and temp range 77-79. . . Ph 8.1-8.3
