HEY ALL,
I would like to know is my coral dying or is it shedding? It's been acting weird since Saturday to be exact.

My leathers do this once in awhile to shed mucus layer and then sometimes drop little "baby clones" after. If you can run some carbon. Also double check nothing is stinging it including night sweepers of other corals in case its not that.
 
Yikes, doesn't look good IMO. Usually when it's shedding it has a glossy surface e and is more curled up and not drooping. This is what mine looked like after not having power for around a week. The drooping and blotched texture is what worries me, could be an infection? How long have you had it? If you grew it out to that size than it's probably not lighting or flow. @encrustingacro, any thoughts?
