Hammer coral melting - thoughts?

Do you have any angelfish or other types of fish that might be picking at it? Or perhaps some hungry peppermint shrimps annoying it when the lights are out?

Nothin! My clowns won't go near em, chromis loves to swim around em, and blenny just rock perches all day. The hermits only climb on my bubble coral and acans. I've spent a fair bit of time (hours!) in the day and lights out looking to see anything, but nada.

if your parameters are truly all in check along with temp and salinity and the tank occupants aren't harassing it then what else can you do? i'm a believer that not every coral is going to thrive in every tank so the last thing i would ever do is tinker around to save it when you have a good thing going otherwise.
