Hello all, I have a frogspawn coral that looks like it's starting to bailout on one polyp. Just noticed it today when I woke up. About a third of the polyp is hanging off the skeleton and is exposing the skeleton underneath. All of my other euphyllia seem to be all right, just not the one polyp. Is there anything I can do to save it?
 
Here's some pictures. The last picture was it from 5 days ago, which is how it looked last night

Have your water parameters changed recently? If they are bailing then they are killing off their connective tissue... this is something they only do if they are extremely stressed.

See this video from Tidal Gardens:


It looks like it's possible it could reattach somewhere else in your tank. But if you water parameters are off I would be worried about your other corals reacting too.
 
No, my alk is at 11, calcium is right under 500, nitrates about 20 ppm. My fiance had moved the rock last night and apparently they didnt like it. I moved the rock back, maybe hoping theyd bounce back. Was wondering if theres anything I can do to help em bounce back
