that's a Bird's Nest SPS coral and sorry to say but when it's that much white, it's at point of no return...

dip and use in sump as future filtration

Only hope would be to frag off some ends that aren't bleached. I'd hurry and frag off a few then glue the bottoms either to the LR or to some frag plugs.

Make sure it's getting a lot of light and don't get any bleached patches in the parts you frag just in case it's RTN. This is a parasite the very quickly knocks out a coral, usually from the base up. Suggestions from my limited knowledge and unprofessional opinion but that's my guess.

Sorry that piece took a hit, it has some great size to it!
