Is it bleaching?

I think even worse. by the looks of it. it could be dying off.

Could a temperature dip be the cause? Tank was at 72.3 this morning

Looks like tissue necrosis which is peeling/loss of tissue as opposed to bleaching which is loss of zooxanthellae. What are you params and have you noticed any changes lately (alkalinity swing perhaps?)

 

[Latinreefer]

RTN, probably temperature change shock

 

[GarageReefer]

most deff a temp drop for that period of time could have done it.

 

[Adri]

Is there any hope?

 

[GarageReefer]

I saved a Hawkins that was in this state by immediately fragging the good piece off. And its doing awesome now!

clip it past the die off and dont mount it ... let it sit in a rack and recoup

Is there any hope?

yup, cut some live stuff off of it. Its possible it wasnt happy already from something and the temp just sent it over the edge.
And sorry, thats a bummer. Nobody likes to wake up to that in the morning.
