To start off, we recently went through half of a tank crash. Our goiniopora died and almost nuked the tank. We lost about $800 worth of stuff, (including my favorite: our electric green open brain! ) anyway, a few things made it, one of which we sort of expected to lose was our bubble coral. It's still hanging on (I think) but it won't inflate. Every once in a while some bubbles will come out, but never all of them. Here's a pic of it, thoughts? Is it dead (or dying) and what should we do if it's not dead yet? It's in the same place it's always been, so no changes to flow or lighting, and it was always very happy prior to the "crash".
Before: (it was like this all the time up until when we had the crash. We've had it for approx 4 months?)
After the crash:
I'm assuming its not dead since it still has the flesh and you can still see the deflated bubbles, plus a few bubbles will inflate every once in awhile, but not all of them, and not all the time.
