Exclamation Torch tried to eat Ricordea- Please help!

I just found my orange ric under my torch coral and it looks terrible. It looks like a goner, but is there anything I can do to give it a better chance at surviving?

That just happened to me last week. I found my orange ric under my hammer. the ric looked like a goner but I placed him in somewhat shade on the other side of the tank. I can still see a little bit of a sting mark but in general it looks so much better.

Thanks so much for the advice. So maybe he isn't a goner.

As far as I know the only thing you can do is move it to a quiet spot and hope for the best. Good luck.
