Tree coral help

My tree coral is sagging a lot and some its coral has gone onto the sand. One "branch" snapped of as well and i have put it in my other tank to see if will grow.

There was a torch coral touching it before but I've since moved it.

Any ideas to what I should do?

Heres a picture

My Kenya tree enjoys pretty strong flow for a soft coral. It will droop over if there is not enough water movement. It may also be recovering from the torch stings as well.

it is nearly impossible to kill them. They multiply by dropping branches. If you moved it away from the torch I wouldnt worry about it to much. In 6 months you will have more kenya tree than you will know what to do with.

It is hard to tell from the picture but does it look like the coral above? If so it a Dendronephthya rather than a Kenya tree as previously suggested. Dendronephthya are NPS (non-photosynthetic) and impossible to keep alive. I'd suggest you remove it from your tank before it decays.

 

Capnella (aka Kenya tree) are brown and look like this:
