Pipe Coral... dead or not?

[jorjef]

I don't have a picture so will describe the best I can. No hand/soft tissue of the coral have been seen for some time. The skeleton in still a nice color of red that fades into flesh tone as it gets to the end of the hard tube. The tank, believe it or not is at 92 degrees (not mine the LFS where this coral is) and was wondering if his was the reason nothing has emerged from the tubes. They are asking $20.00 but I don;t want to throw $20.00 into the garbage in a week.... Anyone have an idea if with the proper color on te skeleton it has a chance of either being alive or coming back..
