Default SPS Frag bleached overnight.

Anyone heard of an accro frag bleaching overnight. It has been doing fine the last few months. No other coral looks sick or bleached at all.

I've only seen rtn overnight, never had something bleach that fast when it was already in the tank.

Did it bleach or RTN? Either way, ya, it can just happen. That's the fun part of SPS
I just had a colony go poof that has been in the tank 4 months, doing fine, then just gone.

At times when I have fraged SPS corals and move them around the tank they will bleach.

Example..

Frag rack.. frag did fine for a month. Moved it to a new spot on the rock and bleached a few days later. Nothing out of the norm with my water etc.
