How many other polyps are there. I would try an iodine bath and if it keeps spreading amputate that polyp and then treat with iodine then seal with silicone or super glue. If you want you could also treat the amputated polyp and grow it out as a frag. Do not amputate if there are not to many polyps.
There’s 3 polyps. This one has it’s tentacles out but they have a green color to them. I feed them today (reef rod) and all 3 seemed to eat. I’m moving it to another place where it’s a little more shady. Hopefully that will help.
A photo would help. Please turn off the blues (or fix white balance) so that we can see what it actually looks like. IME, they tend to be pretty hardy. More information about your system would be helpful as well. Parameters, tank size, total circulation, age, lighting, etc. More info is good info.

Candy canes do well under moderate lighting high on blues and moderate water flot. Daily feeding not required and is there any nearby coral that could have stung that one head?
