i need help with my Duncan!! My rose bubble decided to move and has stung my Duncan a few days ago. Ever since then the Duncan has been declining and when I came home today is looks to be in bad shape. My water is good. 440 cal, 8 alk no nitrates or ammonia but do have some Phos. Any recommendations??

Welcome to R2R!
Sorry to hear your coral got stung. That looks like you'll lose that polyp that is turning brown. The others look OK, albeit angry, from what I can see.
EDIT: Posted at the same time as @Big G . A dip as described can certainly help. A diluted iodine dip usually does wonders IME.

Thank you for the welcome.
It’s odd because the bubble moved last week and the Duncan did not look like that yesterday. However it had been closing up ever since it was stung. Do you think it could be something else other that a sting? It was only grazed by the bubble and then I moved it out of the way.
I added a picture of what it looked like on Sunday!

I’ve had the Duncan for 8-9 months and yes I did adjust the lights. I was running blue and white together for 11 hours and I reduced the white on Saturday to only run 4 hours. Blues are still the same

Update, I did end up dipping the Duncan but unfortunately it didn’t make it. From what I learned from the LFS was that it contracted a virus or bacteria issue and killed it. Looks like I’ll be buying a new one once my Bubble finds a comfortable place! Thanks for the help
