what's the protocol on salvaging a Mille frag that had a very rough trip via fed ex?

I ordered some frags just before thanksgiving, and they ended up getting stuck on the Tarmac (in a snowstorm) for 10 hours. I was fortunate enough to be able to go pick them up that night, but they were really cold and rough. Three (of 13) rtn'd over night after being placed at the bottom of my tank, and most of the rest browned out at minimum. A couple made it through fine and are doing well now, just not great color. The brown ones seem to be getting better slowly. I thought I was out of the woods, but last night I noticed the sapphire Mille was STN'ing on one tip :(. I had placed him halfway up (after leaving him on the bottom for a week), but moved him back down to the bottom after noticing the dead tip. Is there anything else I should be doing to increase its chance of survival? Have lots of other SPS that are thriving, so I am very confident this is related to the rough travel... Any tricks for salvaging this baby would be appreciated. Thanks!
 
Not sure what that will do, isn't it freshwater? Or are you commenting on my avatar? That is a one of one hybrid African chiclid, pundamilia nyererei x aulanocara maylandi. Unintentional beauty from the African tank :).

Anyone got any ideas for my frag?
