pipe organ closed and wont open

[jaynel78]

My pipe organ coral closed up when my 2 sexy shrimp agitated it for 2 days....now it won't open......any suggestions

What sort of flow is it in? How long have you had it? Is there any algae around it? Mine won't open when algae starts growing around them.

It's been in my system for 3 months with a patch hair algae next to it....and it was fine....its in medium flow ......it was totally happy til the shrimp harassed it...I hope it opens up

When I finally sold my green one, I'd had it ~5 years and couldn't frag it quickly enough. I've had my white one for about 1.5 years now, but I'm dealing with some algae from a tank move, so it's not doing the best.

What are your tank params? Nitrates? Phosphates?
