Just noticed some discolouration on my coral. Is it dying?

Doesn't look bad try blowing it off with a turkey baster, sometimes i get little spots on my acans cause my frogspawn send out little pieces and it stings it that could be whats going on.

Also try feeding it a bit and see if that helps

if i'm seeing it right you WANT those discolored parts. that's what makes it a sweet war coral. some of these things end up having more of the non red color...
