did 85 degree water kill my acan?

[twilliard]

Well Last monday I had a pump seize in the tank, a rather large pump Rio 2500. My tank temp ran up to a little over 85 degrees.
It took me a day or two to get the temp back to normal and all looked well until tonight when I got home from a trip I noticed that my newly aquired acan lord colony is starting to turn white around the outside of the polyps and the tips of the skeloton are visable a little.
Did this high temp kill my acan colony?
Are these savable?

Thanks all for any help on this.
Also I want to add, I just got these about 3 weeks ago. They are under 2 250W 14K lamps. They have been doing great up until now so I dont think its lighting (about 24" down from lamps)

If this was the only change in your water parameters, I would have to say yes. Sorry to hear about your loss.

hopefully they are just stressed and some of the coral survives and comes back to normal. i dont think its the temp it self, but the sudden quick rise in temp.

It looks like your acan is still alive. Stressed(receding tissue), but not dead. Try spot feeding it.

Sorry to hear the bad news...Hopefully all is not lost and they make a turn for the best

Thanks all, I will try to spot feed it back to health. Also all my GSP's dont look good.
