How long have you had it. They get some type of bacterial infection and die

7 months. I brought the tank and cprals second hand as a package off someone leaving town im not sure how long he had the elegance for before me. I put her at the back of the tank and she seems to be doing better. Hopefully stays that way. Not sure why she went like that that day was close to lights for a week or two maybe thats wat it was. First time ive seen it happen tho.

We've had our elegance for a year or so, it closes up like that when something bothers it. It seems to get that inflated and closed look when it closes in a hurry. But there are cases where they start to go down hill and look this way constantly.

Elegance corals seem to hate any disturbance. Shifting them is bad news. Major changes in water chemistry or flow or lights upsets them.

Keep things stable and your fingers crossed!
