I have a 30g long with approx 50 lbs of mixed live rock.
Lighting: 2x55w PC (1 actinic +1 10k white)
2x110w VHO (1 actinic 03 + 1 6.5k white)

Water Parameters:

Nitrate: 0
Nitrite: 0
Ammonia: 0
Calcium: 350ish ppm
PH: 8.3
ALK: Medium (havent gotten a test kit to determine exact amount)

Anyways, I came home one day and I saw it shriveled up. I did not worry because it sometimes gets bothered by the cleaner shrimp. I started to worry when a day later, it still was shriveled and one of the heads started wasting away. Anyone know what the heck is going on? I don't want to lose this one. THANKS!!

there looks to be a little purple crab in the lower right hand side of the pic. it looks like you really got rid of alot of your stuff. i really wouldn't know how to help
 
my alk level was a little bit on the low side because my calcium level was a little high. I did another water change even though my trates and trites read 0. I don't know if changing that contributed to it getting well again, but I would certainly like to think so. I fed it a couple times and it slowly recovered on its own. Now its super huge.
