I been looking at this coral at the LFS for quite a few weeks, and reading about them on here. Yesterday I broke down and bought it.
The LFS has had it for quite a while, and I know at least one guy returned it. I know it is a "NPSC"and that it requires spot feeding on a regular basis.
Here it is while acclimatising (3 hour drip while floating in DT)
This is what it did after I picked it out of the bowl and placed it in the tank. This pick is about an hour after placement.
This pick is this morning. you can see brine shrimp in the cups, I blew some in, in hopes it would ketch some and eat or open. I have my doubts about when this thing last ate. I would guess at least a month if not more. It did ketch 2 or 3 yesterday and eat them by sucking them in. (no polyp extension)
Here you can see it starting to suck in some brine.
So my questions are how dose it look?
I dont have a spot where a bottle will fit over it, should I continue with turning off pumps and spot feeding the brine?
Thanks
Cope
