Can use some help please

So i woke up this morning and i noticed this happen to my coral

it turned white on half of it and i dont know whats going on! Everything else seems to be fine

is the torch coral touching it?

It could be RTN, or that torch coral got to it. Are they right next to each other? Sweeper tentacles can reach pretty far.

My vote is the torch stung it. Check your alk.

Yeah it is kind of touching it theyve been next to each other for about a week now and this just happened this morning

Yeah, they cannot touch. The torch will win every time. I'd put the torch at least 8" or more away from anything it can sting.

dang alright yeah definitely going to move it to its own side. Is my coral now dead?

Sorry to see that, its a nice little colony. I would cut off unaffected coral and cross my fingers

Way too close to the torch ( at least 4" distance away.)
Assure water flow is moderate and no spike in PH or Alk as well as salinity.

Yeah everything is fine as of right now. Should i just remove the whole colony out of the tank? Sorry im still learning in this process
