    Can you please look at the pic and see if I need to be concern about the areas where I circled. The areas are actually turning dark/brown

    Should I leave them alone or cut them off? Thanks.

    actually, if you look from the right side, the lower right area (circled) has a hole (gap). No alage. I have been keeping my eyes to make sure this is not getting any bigger.

    it's a type of Acropora. Not exactly sure of the name.
