Is my acan dying?

[SamAPFish]

So a couple days ago I noticed an aiptasia right next to(basically on ) my acan coral. I don’t have any aiptasia x so I haven’t treated it. My acan app of a sudden looks super weird so I think it may be dying...

Imo...

Its either being drilled by a stinging tentacle from another coral, prob the Aiptasia

Or

Its being nipped on by a fish.

The damage is localized to smthg irritating that section

Well I have no corals anywhere near it, especially ones with sweeper tenticals. So you don’t think it’s the aiptasia stinging it?

Absolutely

 

[SamAPFish]

Absolutely

Sorry but absolutely not from the aiptasia or absolutely it is aiptasia?

The acan damage you see is from the Aiptasia.

If you have Kalkwasser powder you can mix up a paste of kalk and coat the Aiptasia to kill it

Nope I don’t have kalkwasser powder. Should I just torch. It and burn part of the acan? Is it worth it?
