HELP!!!! Hammer coral is dying.....

[bmac_2727]

My A/C unit in my house crashed on me while I was gone over the weekend. When I came back my house was at 97 degrees so I ran to my tank and found the water temp to be at 92. I got my A/C fixed ASAP and it appears everything is fine except for my hammer. It has shriveled up and has like a mucus membrane looking slime around it. I love this coral so much I don't want to consider it a loss. Can it recover in time or should I throw it away. It was once so beautiful and now it looks just horrible..... What should I do???

Don't throw it away! Usually one of the heads will be more hardy and grow back. It's still a loss but it's not totally dead.
