Help with shriveled leathers??

[Ironman58]

I posted this on a local forum, but wanted to get y'alls thoughts as well..

I have a couple of little leather corals and they were doing well. I did a water change yesterday and there were a few unmixed crystals of salt that fell RIGHT on them both..I blew it off with water real quick, but afterwards I noticed a long slimy string coming from its mouth. Things seemed ok, but This morning I wake up and they are shriveled up!! I have all the lights on and they seems to be a LITTLE better....here's before and after. Thoughts? I'm just hoping they'll get over it and get healthy again...

give it a little more time before you panic.

The salt most likely just irritated the shrooms and they expelled some of their zooxanthellae.

Also remeber they dont like alot a flow so keep that in mind

GSP is a very sting-ee thingy.
It's probably bothering your leathers.

I would also remove that GSP from you main rock pile,it will eventually take over everything.
