You've chosen one of the more difficult corals for your first coral.

More details about your tank will help us to help you. In addition to above questions, how old is your tank? do you have any other corals, how are they? what type of lighting and flow do you have?

Almost dead as a doornail I'm afraid. That's tissue necrosis and at that advanced stage there is nothing left to save, all the white stuff is just bone.

How long have you had it in there?

Snip off the top nubes and gently superglue to a plug/rock, immediately dip in tank water for curing.
Cut only good flesh of the is any left.
