New Red Haddoni- Advice

[Woogiekids]

I purchased a reddish Haddoni (assuming it will color up) on Thursday, so it's been in my tank for two days. It planted it's foot immediately (which is awesome), but it's mouth is still gaping (but not inverted). I understand this is normal at first?

Tank's salinity is a little low at 1.023, so I am slowly bringing that up to 1.025.

Any insight or advice? I've successfully kept Haddoni in the past, but this one is my holy grail, and I'm paranoid, lol

i think it looks good and healthy but i am no expert just give it some time it will close up

Thanks. Things seem to be fine so far. Still has an open mouth, but hasn't deflated or moved.

It looks good. Have you fed it yet? My haddoni mouth isn't 100% closed all the time but as long as it isn't closing repeatedly or moving around you should be good. I run my tank about your salinity and i have yet to have a problem.

Yes. it's eaten twice. The second time (today) was a very fast feeding response. I wasn't planning on feeding again, but when I fed the clowns flake, it's mouth started puffing up in a feeding response, so I gave it krill, which it sucked up asap.
