Bleached Rics

[blot60]

I recieved a rock containing 7 ric polyps. My LFS gave it to me because they are bleached out. I am running PCs. What do I need to do to get the color back. I cant find my camera cable so no pics. Trust me they are bleached. They look like they will be orange with a green mouth and green edge. Thanks.

Just try to keep them healthy, they can take medium light so I will locate them directly under the PCs. You ay want to target feed them some cyclopeeze

I agree if they are ricordea floridas, which it sounds like they are. If they're yumas I'd start with them at the bottom of your tank and maybe in the shade a little bit and slowly move them out into the light over the course of a few weeks.

I'd also target feed them with mysis shrimp in addition to cyclop-eeze.

feeding and more light than a PC. Since that is all you have though, I would put them up as high as possible. JMHO and good luck
