have about 8 corals in my tank...2 of them were fine yesterday today all of the little fingers arent standing up anymore...and the one which is a table coral all of the ruffles are even shrinking up...the other one in trouble is a colt coral...same thing there... all fingers are not standing up...have had the colt for 4 weeks and the table for 1 week.
all parameters are fine....i just dont understand why only those 2 are in trouble?
please help thanks

when you say params are fine what are they? this info will help determine what could be a problem. somtimes my finger leather will shrink up for a day or 2 and return to normal after that.

I agree that they will do this from time to time. Give it a couple days.
What is this table? LPS,SPS or some thing else?

Try adding Baking Soda or a commercial Carbonate source & get your ALK up around 175ppm.
Slowly though... should take a week.
