Is my Crocea a goner?

[mikeandjenn99]

I have taken in a small crocea from a local reefer who is breaking his tank down. I acclimated it for about an hour before putting in in my tank. I placed it on a flat piece of rock, on the sand so it could acclimate to the lights. It seemed ok yesterday, the mantle was extended well, and seemed happy. Ever since this morning, it hasn't extended its mantle, and I noticed a small hole just up from the 'output' hole. Is it having a rough time acclimating or did something damage it and it's slowly dying?
Thanks

It is dead. You should remove it before it fouls the water.

It is still sensitive to light/movement and closes when touched... do you mean dead as inevitable death?
