Today, I got this chalice. It's really nice, coloration is awesome, but it has suffered some damage. The middle is white, and it has been in a tank with many potential pests. Immediately after getting it, I removed the base, scraped off as much of the base rock as I felt was safe (that I wouldn't crack the actual coral) and dipped for 15 minutes at 100% dose of 2LF ReVive.
Here's a few pictures of the coral, under white light and under blues, and the placement I chose for it. It's at a place that my micro plating alveopora seems happy and is growing.
Close-up (front), under indirect sunlight (top), location in tank, position relative to other corals (top)
Does anyone know what might've happened to it, the best way to treat it, if I should continue the dips (and if I harmed it by dipping - i've heard chalices are very delicate))
Thank you guys in advance!
