    They are probably stressed by something. Corals slime when they are stressed. My zoos do all the time. They probably just had a hermit walk over them or something like that. You can baste them, but its not really necessary.

    He/She stated Red slime. Yes, it will go somewhere else, however, you do not to leave it on the Coral so use a baster to remove it. If it is limited, as you gently blow it off, be siphoning at the same time to a bucket so it isn't spread around too much.
