Default Killing the unkillable?

Hmm. Not quite sure what's happening here.

The entire contents of my tank (37G with 20G sump, and 250W MH) consists of 10 blue leg hermits and 3 bits of Anthelia. One clump of Anthelia was utterly thriving yesterday, but when I came home from work, it was all gray and curled up. The other two clumps, which can't be more than 10cm away, are doing better than they were yesterday.

I know my nitrates are slighly high (10-20ish), but from what I was told, this wouldn't be a problem for this.

I'm not panicing in the slightest, if I lose these corals, it isn't a big deal at all...I'm just rather concerned that one of the hardiest corals out there (so I've heard) isn't doing too well in my tank

About the only thing I can think of is that yesterday they only had about 7 hours of light, and today they had closer to 10. The two that are doing better are in a less lighted (but not by much) area of the tank.

Any ideas?
