Really ?
I have had issues with photo acclimation/bleaching before and it never happened in such a short period of time. Corals can retract their tissue almost completely if sudden events happen it's usually prolonged exposure that causes harm. The next time my friendly LFS gets a new Elegance will just have to test this.
