Help, new trumpet coral receding

[Diana]

I just got a gorgeous new neon green trumpet or candy cane coral. Within a few days its started to shrink into the skeleton... i think its dieing. I have another powder blue candy cane coral in the tank and its doing great.

Anyone have any idea? Can i still save it?

Did you try to match the environmental variables from it's previous home? Specifically Lighting, and waterflow. Often if they are kept in lower lighting at the store they expand and look good but placing then in an environment with intense light right away can cause then to decline. If you don't know then it's safest to start them at the bottom of the tank in a corner and slowly bring then into more light.

Same with waterflow.
