trumpet coral, help!

I lost the power at my house for about 2-3 hours and my tank was down. Since then 1-2 heads on it are taking a turn for the worse, should I cut those 2 off or just let it be? I don't want the rest of the 25+ head colony to die.

I don't think 2 dying will cause the rest to die. I would also give those 2 time to recover. Watch them and if they do indeed start deteriorating, then frag them off. Just my 2 cents.

Don't panic just yet.

Last week, the power at my house was out for 26 HOURS ! The only thing that was running the entire time was my battery powered airstone.

Your coral is hardier tha you think it is, Just give it time to recover from the shock, and it should be ok.

The only thing in my tank that looked "funny" after my power outage was my colt coral. After a week, it's back to normal.
