Looks like it's under direct light?

These guys can be tricky. I lost two in the sand bed, despite other showing growth. Scolys are deep water corals, and as such don't get a ton of light.

Hes under an overhang :) but ill move him again to a spot with indirect light :) any suggestions?

What salt brand were you using before the switch? Also, your tank is two years old?

Everyone’s tanks differ, I run a RadionPro 4 with a diffuser, nine inches above tank set at 45%, whites, red and green set at 12%. I turned it down when I was battling gha and didn’t bother to turn it back up. Corals looking goid, mimosa clam on bottom of tank is happy, sps are showing growth. Sps have been in for approximately 2.5 weeks. Alk is 7.5, slowly raising to 8. CA is 460 or above, MG is 1500. I use TM Pro salt, it stays consistent with 4g wc per week.

Scoly and acan placement...they definitely get flow. Acan is more out in the open. Acan maxima handles flow well. Puffy and no rips. Scoly towards bottom of rock work, they aren’t shaded. The newly cut ones I put more toward the shade for now.

i have the same problem with my master croc island scoly and there's noting you can do to save it, other people told me to dip it in revival and other solution but that still didn't helps.
