Forgive me if this isn't an sps still very new to this, but I purchased a used system and everything seems good so far. But I think this (birdsnest?) Is starting to die I've been watching water parameters and they've been pretty stable

PH:8
Nitrates: 26
Alk: 10.6
Salinity 1.025

I've got a phosphate tester on the way but I don't want to loose any livestock from previous owner
 
Yes its dying, both from the top and from the bottom. There is not even a small healthy part that you can frag.

Its really hard to say what happened without a lot more info.... IME birdsnest are finicky and don't like any changes.

Any harm in leaving the skeleton? It looks cool
