Dying coral

[reefermadness55]

Got a lobo a bit over a week ago, it quickly started withering. I also got several other corals around that time. One got brown jelly and died about 6 days after, all in less than 20 hours. The lobo started withering on day 2, and has quickly gotten worse. Now it kind of looks like some sorry of white sponge almost. Just want to know if I should leave it alone, and hope it recovers, or let it die there, or take it out now, I just don't want other corals to get sick from whatever is happening to this one

I hope someone who knows the answer answers you soon. I'm a newbe and would like to know for future reference.

What are your water peramiters ph,ammonia,nitrates, are you using tap or rodi water, I would try a water change if you have high nitrates or ammonia

You have the means I would hack the piece a little above the good tissue line and then give it a good dip in an iodine solution.

If your water parameters and lighting are not in line for the coral, you will not be able to save it. Can you throw your water numbers at us, and what type of lighting your have?
