Rowaphos media in my tank damaged my soft coral

Hello,

I had a problem and some rowaphos media went into my tank, it sticked to this soft coral and there is some particules on my sand too. How bad is it for my tank in general and what should I do ?

I took out some sand already but it's impossible to get rid of everything.

I cleaned the coral already but should I cut the damaged parts too?

It happened to me a few times, nothing ever happened.

Ok it's maybe not as bad as I thought

What about my coral, will it heal itself or I have to cut the damaged parts?

I would "wait and see", leathers are resilient, so hopefully it should recover on its own. If that part of it turn white, then its time to cut it off.
