Just added Kenya Tree Frags

[jason21]

I just added some (5) large (4 Inch) Frags of Kenya Tree from a buddy's tank. I have them stuck throughout my tank, but they seem a bit limp right now. It has only been a couple hours since they have been in there. I did acclimate slowly. Is this normal? I also added a bit of Xenia and Green star polyps. What chemical cocktail would all of you recommend? 120 Gal tank, 400 watt t5 lighting.

Thanks in advance

Mine took about half a day when i first put them in to fully open. Mine are in full flow, and good light currently and doing well.

Typical, no worries, 48 hours usually provides enough time to allow for tissue expansion. If after this amount of time, there is no change, you might consider tank placement depending on where the previous colony came from i.e. stronger, dimmer lighting, or turbid or relaxed flow can make a huge impact on its initial appearance.

Picked mine up on Thursday...Late friday it started looking better...yesterday it was kind of iffy....today it looks good. My xenia frag on the other hand...well....it was withering away, but I added some more flow yesterday and it looks a LITTLE better...we'll see how it goes....
