So, my Kenya tree was doing absolutely fine, but around two days ago it got all sad and pale out of nowhere, however the branch it left behind a few weeks ago is doing just fine, phosphates are around 0.03 the only thing might be my temps (21 C / 72 F ish)

Welcome to your new home for saltwater reef aquarium resources and fun! Welcome to the family! :D

Offer moderate light and medium flow as these are very hardy
 
Could be very typical behavior-- I wouldn't be surprised if in a few more days it's back looking bigger and better than ever. (This is assuming you had no major lighting or water parameter shifts 😉.)
 
Welcome!

Do you have any fish that may be snacking on it? If they get irritated enough they’ll close up that way. If it’s stays like that for week+ it’ll keep shrinking until it disappears. I don’t see the skin peeling which indicates it’s irritated especially if there’s another in the tank doing well.
