candy cane dying?

[ilikepie777]

Help!!!! Today I just replaced the power compacts of my biocube 14 with a par38 led from reefbreeder, everything was going fine until after about half an hour I went in to check to see how everything was doing and my candycane coral had absolutely spewed out all of it's zooxanthellae and now it is completely shriveled up did I kill my candy cane coral with such high intensity lighting? please reply!

Candycane's do not like intense light, so if you can move it down and into an area that doesn't get full light if you have one.

yeah but did I kill it when I exposed it to the light?

Tough to say. Picture would help.

Well good new I adjusted the light and put him at the bottom of the tank and after a day he is fully puffed up again hopefully he stays that way
