Frogspawn coral(Euphyllia divisa) is a species of large polyped stony coral that is hermatypic in nature meaning it requires calcium and strontium to precipitate and form its calcareous skeleton.
Frogspawn coral does not require intense light and water flow, as omard stated, for its success in a captive environment.
The questions you need to address are:
Is the head(tissue and polyps/tentacles) receiving enough light...not the white skeleton but the tissue itself!
Is the coral receiving enough water flow to remove waste and ensure oxygen transport as well as food to it, and decrease chances of algae and detritus accumulation?
What types of corals do you have situated next to the Frogspawn? Frogspawn is a potent and toxic coral that will injure or kill most neighboring corals!
With your addressing of these key questions, you and your corals should be very happy with the outcome.
