I was just wondering if my plate is doomed or if there is anyway i can get it healthy again?  A few weeks ago I was knocking salt creep off the edges of my tank and some landed on the Plate coral.  After the mucus and green strips coming off had settled down it looked normal.  The last couple of weeks I noticed that it doesn't extend it tentacles or puff up anymore.  If I try to feed it, it will swallow only whats placed directly on its mouth and then spit it up a little while later.  Before i would feed it two to three times a week with frozen Mysis or Formula 1 pellets. 
 
I have had it since the first week of June.  The tank has been set up since the end of April.  The first pic was taken a few days before I knocked the salt on it.  So far I havn't tried anything, I was hoping the coral will fix itself but if there is anything I can do to help it bounce back I would really like to know.  Thanks
