This. I would trim off the dead skeleton and then quarter it, keeping my fingers crossed. Given its condition, if you do dip it, I would do half the reccomended dose for fungiids. So, 50ml/l.I have not lost any yet from peroxide dipping, but I only did it once... also but yours is looking quite rough. I would trim around the edges as well with a bandsaw, otherwise the algae will just grow back. They shatter quite easily so be careful. How long has it been like this? Honestly if I were you i would cut it in half or quarters and hope for the best, if the recession hasn't stop. Otherwise its likely it will recede all the way.
it was nothing but a white skeleton and then I put it in the corner of my 20gal tank with no light and no flow, and been about 2-3 months and it is now coming back to what it is. I just don't know if the algae on its skeleton will prevent it from growing more or if I should just leave it.I have not lost any yet from peroxide dipping, but I only did it once... also but yours is looking quite rough.

Thats good, in that case you should trim it, the algae will just grow back in and irritate it, if you don't trim, and Im guessing that fungia dont grow over their skeleton. Peroxide is very rough on corals too so it should be done as a last resort sort of thing. Though a word of caution, if you dont have a band saw, I would try to look for one, Ive broken too many fungia with the bone clipper or whatever they are call.it was nothing but a white skeleton and then I put it in the corner of my 20gal tank with no light and no flow, and been about 2-3 months and it is now coming back to what it is.

I do not have a band saw, and not to many friend in the hobby yet so I will just leave it and see what happens over time.Thats good, in that case you should trim it, the algae will just grow back in and irritate it, if you don't trim, and Im guessing that fungia dont grow over their skeleton.
