I think I fried my kenya tree coral
 
Just set up new 90 gal on boxing day was using corallife PC 65 watt kenya was looking good then I changed to my sunsun 150 watt MH kenya was looking unbeleiveable and the light was on for about 4 hrs and we left came back 1 hr later kenya was limp on the rock (not shrunk in but dead looking) we move it to a lower light but it dosent look like it is comming back.Do you think there is any hope or should i take it out?

They can look that way & still recover. Softies are weird that way. Don't toss it out yet. Give it a few more days & see if it recovers.

Try just doing the light on for an hour off for an hour thing. 4 hours of 150W MH versus 65W PC is quite a difference :eek:

Kenya trees are very hardy... I have had hundreds.. I think most of the Island has had one from me or from someone I gave one to. They do like lower light.. I have not heard of anyone ever killing one. Hope yours comes back.

Cheers
