    Looks like just a skeleton to me. Does it have any polyps on it? A close-up would help.

    That's 2 pictures of the same coral, so anything is possible if that cancerous looking thing can come back!

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    To me it looks like a piece of Fire Coral, which is not actually an sps.
