Well I just came into town from a nice 7 day vacation out of the states. Well I came home to a dreaded surprise that my lighting and flow did not turn on. I had bleached one new coral due to that but am hoping maybe it is just really stressed and might have a slim chance to recover. But Since my lighting was off do I need to reacclimate corals or are they ok to turn my lights back on to what they usually were?
 
I have been told to re-acclimate even after 3 day black outs so I guess I would play it safe and re-acclimate.....maybe not to the extent that you normally would for a new coral though.
