well whenever i reaquscaped my rocks: took em out and placed them back in.........my sps had alot of slime coming off........the tips did have the zooanthexallae, expelled and you could see the skeleton....it doesnt necessarily mean it is RTN......the sps could be stressed that it expelled the zooanthexallae, but mine grew back color on the tips where the skeleton was showing.
