Recently I noticed that many of my LPS corals has heads that were closed and not opening up at all. I observed my bicolor blenny nipping at some of these corals and figured that I may have ended up with a blenny that has a taste for coral. Today I removed the blenny from my tank and hope that now that without his nipping my corals will go back to normal.

Does anyone have any experience with corals that’s have been affected like this? I’m wondering if there’s more that I can do to ensure they open up again if the blenny was in fact the cause of their stress.
 
I had a bicolor blenny like to nip at acros. I think bicolor blenny is reef safe with caution.
