I come home from a three day weekend trip and my beautiful green Plate coral Funghia is shrived and a somewhat bleachy. 'She' stays shriveled for the next couple days. I look in the back and notice one of my two fuge lights is burned out while I was away. I replace the bulb and 'she' is back to normal in three days. This happened once before and the plate did the same thing.
I have two 20 watt bulbs and only one burned out. How much could phosphates have risen as a result? I'm thinking plates are more sensitive to phosphates than other corals. All my other corals looked fine like torches, trumpets, green star and others.
