Hey everyone, I am still new to the hobby and have a 90gal cube reef tank, I have a green star polyp that came with the tank setup when i purchased it, it has been do amazing and spreading like a weed.
Last weekend I got a few new corals, I QT'd them and dipped them before acclimating to my DT. One of the corals I got is a Devils hand, it has been opening wide and full everyday at lights on and closing at night. Thursday night it closed and hasn't reopened (36 hours). Now this morning my GSP main colony hasn't opened a single polyp but the frags and other spots in the tank where the GSP started to gorw are all open. I'm curious why these 2 corals are not opening. Any help would be appreciated.
no color changed noted on the corals. other corals seem happy
JUST tested my parameters and are as follows:
PHOSPHATE (PO4) 0
CALCIUM (CA) 480
NITRATE (NO3) 0.1
NITRITE (NO2) 0.1
AMMONIA (NH3/NH4) 0
PH 8.2
TEMPERATURE 26.6c
SALINITY 1.025 - 1.025
