hammer coral dying

Hi I’m on the newer side of the reefing hobby, and I have a hammer coral that seems super unhappy. Pictures attached. I’ve taken my water to an accredited reef store in my area and they tested all my parameters with the Hanna Testing kits. Nitrates came back high and I did a 5 gallon water...

LFS game me this coral due to it not doing well in their system. Rather than letting it just die I took the challenge of trying to nurse it back to life.

I recently picked up this hammer and have found that it is receding. Do you think there's any hope for its survival? Do you think an iodine dip would help?

I posted once and didnt get any tips but Im really helping someone can chime in there is no evidence anywhere online for what to do. Backstory- I had a dino outbreak, i used dino X, it killed my SPS corals, but everything else was fine. I stopped treatment, over course of 2 weeks did 60%...

I recently had to change the water and add algone to my 6 gallon saltwater aquarium because I noticed another coral was bleaching and the hammers were starting to curl in on themselves. After checking the levels via test strip I noticed nitrate and nitrite were high. I was wondering if they can...

I recently noticed my hammer corals mouth keeps coming out (if that is in fact his mouth). Usually it just happens for a couple of minutes then it’s covered up again. However I am worried that something is wrong. I just got the coral roughly 5 days ago. Checked salinity and all other levels and...

Hello, My hammer randomly does this and hasnt looked fully inflated and happy since i bought it. Water parameters are normal. I just moved it a little higher on my aquascape in hopes of getting more light/flow. .

I ordered this hammer coral and it got delayed in shipping. It seems the tip of the polyps have fallen off on some. What are some emergency procedures I can do to maximize the chance of this coral living?
