Chances are it's a brown slime infection, torches are prone to it. Pull it out of the tank carefully, try not to slough off too much of the slime - you don't want to spread the bacteria. Cut off the affected heads, dip the whole colony in an iodine solution like lugol's or reef dip.

Welcome to Reef2Reef! I wouldn't worry about feeding it, I've never fed them just fed the tank. The brown slime is probably poo...lol
