Most of the 'nepthias are non photosynthetic and require massive feedings which no one as I have seen yet are able to provide in a tank to keep these corals alive. Even then it is a guess that it is massive feedings that these corals require for survival.

Basically your coral starved and disintegrated I am betting. These corals do not belong in our tanks at this time. We don't know the requirements to keep them and all that ends up happening is that they starve and die.

I agree. They are best left in the ocean until their care requirements are determined by experts and scientists.
