Didn't you just start this tank like a week ago?......If so I think it's still a liitle too soon to be adding corals probably some nasties coming out of the sand or the rocks from the move. The flesh isn't gone on it yet maybe someone with a more established system can nurse it back until your tank is ready. From the pic it looks to be low in the tank did you try higher? and I don't think those lights will cut it, it may substain life but it probably won't grow much.

My torch is doing just fine, actually doing well under a 28w T5 10,000k and actinic so I think you're fine for light. Make sure you have adequate water flow they like water to flow around them but not directly at them and yes if it's a new tank there could be dozens of reasons for it's withdrawl.
If you live close to a fish store take a water sample in, have them verify the tests you've done, depending on the test kits you are using there may be a problem there. I've used the budget/inexpensive kits in the past and seen huge differences in readings from one kit to another, now I'm sold on Salifert and frankly, I'd rather spend my money on them, I feel confident in the quality and if my pH reads 8.3 I'm comfortable with it actually being 8.3 Doug
