Is my new coral dying?????

I just got a new trumpet coral yesterday, I added it to my 54 gallon reef tank. Everything else is looking great, but my new coral is secreting some white goop. Is this from stress? Is it going to poison the rest of my tank? I would appreciate any help you could give me. Thanks

is it still secreting the white "goop", more than likly it is just from stress. usually with trumpet and candy cane corals if they are all poofed up and completly covering the end of is skeleton it means that it is doing well and is healthy.

Thanks for the reply. I don't see anymore "goop" And It has great color and seems to be doing well. Thanks for the help.

No problem that is what this forum is all about. Any chance you could get a good pic of the coral?
