Wait, which one is shriveled?
Some Nephthea (Nephtheum?!) can produce toxins as a sort of "warfare" against other corals. Where are they placed respectively? If the Frog Spawn is shriveled, try placing it upstream from the Nephthea. If the Nephthea is shriveled, and is placed too closely to the Frog Spawn, try distancing them as Frog Spawn have sweeper tenticles that may sting the other coral. Both species are somewhat aggressive. As Beverly suggested, test for Calcium. Both species also benefit from the addition of Iodine and Strontium.

Tree coral are very hardy. It may take it a while to acclimate.

Jim,
Salifert makes magnesium, calcium and alkalinity test kits. They're cheaper if you buy them online, but can also be bought at some SW lfs.

The skimmer should remove it if it's doing its job! I turn mine off for an hour or so when I add the phytoplankton.
