I have the same problem. It's been limp and small for a few months (ha! that's what she said).

Anyway, the first question everyone is going to ask you is what does "water parm all good" mean?

I.e. everyone will want to know the exact measurements for Nitrates, nitrites, pH, specific gravity, alkalinity, calcium, phosphates, and ammonia.

hey

What other corals you have near the colt???? Something may be stinging it. Colts are a very hardy coral to have.

post some pics. sometimes a few good shots will give a better analysis on the problem.
also, colt corals r usually a very loose term that can represent a few diff types of leathers.

If you can please provide a Picture of the colt coral, check to see if you have any glass anomies around the coral. I have heard they can live in any type of water, I know when I had the coral it did not come out for about a week now I have had it for over 3 months and it is budding.
