I have a few coral questions. I went on a 5 day vacation and the care taker of my tank accidentally shut off the timer for my lights. My hammer has 2 heads, one is fine and the other looks awful with a green mossy looking stuff, should I cut off the bad head?

The other two are corals I bought on WWC cyber Monday live sale. They were in a frag rack towards the top of my tank and seemed fine initially, but now look bleached out. Will they come back?

Thanks to everyone in advance
 
I'd move everyone to the sandbed. (Or move the frag rack down to sand level). Then every week I would move them 6" or so upwards.). I'm guessing the light stayed on the whole time and never went off. What are your NO3 and PO4?

Can you give me # for where you at on the moment?
