Bubble coral problems

I've noticed recently that my large bubble coral has been starting to loose bubbles on one side. What I suspect happened was a fight with the anemone which is very close to it. Problem is that the bubble coral is each day getting worst and worst. It looks like it's spreading. Started loosing bubbles on the left side and it's now slowly spreading. I can see the skeleton on one side now. Anyone know what could be happening? All my other coral are fine, water conditions perfect, nothing changed in the tank. Could it be a parasite or worm?

Could just be aleopathy. (Chemical warfare) It does not only happen from coral touching as the coral put these chemicals into the water column as a defensive means also. If you have a copy of Bornemanns book "Corals" you can read about it. I don't have it with me but somewhere around page 70ish.

Is there anything I can do to save the bubble coral? I tried moving it to another spot, it doesn't seem to be getting better.
