Frogspawn Question

[dpsa98]

I just purchased a frogspawn this morning from my LFS and since bringing him home he has yet to really open up . Is this normal and if soo how long does it usually take for them to open fully? My water is RO with all good parameters. I dont have many corals just a plate coral and a frag of zoos. The frogspawn is placed in the sand next to some LR. I have 175W MH lighting also 2x 28 Watt blue actintic bulbs.

Thank You,
Dave

It should do fine. I take it that it was on the ground at your lfs. Mine lived at 29" quite a while, and then I put it up higher to see how it liked it. The upshot is it's living 17" under 250 w mh 10000, also with 2 blue actinics, and happy as a tick. So after it opens, it may be happy down there, but you might try raising it a bit ultimately.

I'm told they can be spot fed with soaked krill. I intend to try this myself. In the meanwhile it seems to expand for cyclopeeze.

sk8r you have helped me with advice on more than one occasion and I can't tell you how much I appreciate it. I will purchase some cyclopeeze. Would I use a turkey baster to squirt it right into it.

Thanks once again,
Dave
