I added a Yellow Figi Leather to my tank on Tuesday this week. Today it didn't look very good, the polyps didn't extend. By this evening it curled up tight which exposed a sore on the stem. This wasn't there when i inspected it and dipped in CoralRX. Any idea what it might be and what should i do? The only fish in the tank is an ocellaris clown, Asure Damsel, and a Gobi. And some hermit crabs and snails. The tank parameters are good.

I would leave the coral be and allow it to acclimate. Fiji yellows can be more difficult to acclimate. Once acclimated they are relatively hardy and I do not see the area in the image of being a great concern.
