"What lights are you running? what are you dosing with? what shape were the frags in when you first got them? what are your water parameters?"

well..........i have a coral life lunar light heres the lighting it has

Two 65 watt 10,000K and two 65 watt True Actinic 03 Blue straight pin base compact fluorescent lamps
Four 3/4 watt Lunar Blue-Moon-Glow LED lamps

alright im still pretty new with the reef tanks so bare with me here........what do you mean dosing and parameter?

And when i got the frags they were in good condition the green slimmer had its polyps out and was beautiful with its neon green color......the one that died was really nice to it was an acropora and in really good shape nothing looked wrong with it.............

the last one i believe i said it had just some white on one branch..........well besides that one branch its O.K. the polyps are kind of coming out on the top. the local fish guy told me that something might eating it / diseasing it.....so i should cut it off where he white starts.
