Why has my sun coral stopped coming out for food ?

Nothing has changed in my system apart from a T5 blown that i havent had time to replace but i thought that would benefit the SC as they dont like light ????

as you no mc sun coral (tubastraea aurea) are very hard to keep any change in parameters of water or light or feeding can cause this.they dont require lots of light because they lack zooxanthellae, they must be oriented where feeding is easy as they must feed alot . never feed them less than 3 times a week .

Michael, i kep a sun coral for a while, but eventually it withered away after a few months - i question whether we can reproduce the live and varied diet found in the wild.
