Pete,
You said the magic phrase on one of your questions... it's reaching for the light.
The other striped may not be doing well because of the water flow it is receiving right there.
That is somewhat of the problem of rocks with corals on them 360 degrees around. Something isn't going to do well because of the lighting or the water flow it is receiving in that position.

You may try putting the purple/striped rock up a bit higher in your tank in a lower-flow area.

Give it a try and see what happens in a day or so.

heres a pic of my shroom rock before i moved it to higher up. Will most of these be ok? (i had a striped that was on the right, has has disappeared as of today, im guessing died and floated off the rock.)
