Crop the picture smaller in paint and it'll bring down the size of the image.

It can still make it. The mouth looks intact. Move it low and lower light. Easy flow. Nothing turbid.

i am just saying this since you are still very new, but you might want to ask somebody that has a more established tank to take this guy for a little while to see if it can be brought back, i think there might be a higher success rate that way.

It's in my tank now. Looks pretty rough. I'll do my best.

You've obviously got something going on you need to identify before adding any more coral.

coral are pretty tough i wouldn't worry so much about acclimation process , i would check water parameters.
