Should I frag this to try and save it?

I have some tissue necrosis after 2 weeks starting at the base.

Before and after are below.

Here is my log.

From the looks of the first picture, it had some light colored tissue from get go and even some damage. It's minor and correct it's self in time. I'd give it some more time to see if it improves.

Don't frag it till it's pure white.

Can you elaborate on this?

If it gets any worse maybe try a dab of super glue at the base.

Take it out or put it on in the tank?

8 months in Feb. It sat for 2 months with dead shrimp before I tested or added anything. I did not add any coral until I started seeing corraline.

So, listen, First, add more fish to the tank. This will help. Tank is still new and looks new. Fish poop will fuel bacteria and add food to the water in the form of nutrients. You need this for corals to thrive. Especially acros.
Don’t add any more corals till more fish have been added and are thriving.
The coral in question looks rough. But still hard to tell. If the base is STNing currently. I would remove it from the rock and frag it asap. Make sure you cut well into healthy tissue. Toss the rest. Cut away the dead parts...(anything white is dead usually). An rtning or stning coral can be, but not always, be contagious IMO. Don’t wait...do it ASAP.
