Look over the coral....especially on the base of the "fleshy" part where it meets the calcareous skeleton. Do you see any sort of "tube" constructed out of detritus/silk and sand?

Do you mean they both were TOTALY eaten, everthing overnight. Dout it was anything on the list you gave. Polyps could have fallen off if they were stressed. But still sounds strange to me.
