I bought this acro as "unknown Bali acro" Here is a pic shortly after I bought it, and placed it about 5 or 6 inches under water below a 150 12k reeflux, it started to encrust and looked decent, I recently purchased 250watts and I am for the time being using the stock current 250 10ks.

Problem is now this coral has turned completely brown and has lost ALL polyp extension. Am I burning this coral up? I moved it to about 1/3 the way up from the bottom and it seems to be getting some polyps opening at the tips.

Thanks

Rob

It will come back. I did the same thing then moved it 3/4 of the way down from the top and it has been about two months and completely recovered.
