Polyps won't open

[julesjt]

polyps won't open for a few weeks now.
I have a link to a video of my polyp that won't open.

My levels are all good and you will see everything is doing great except one group of polyps and it has been a few weeks since I seen them open. Sometimes I may see two or three a bit open but that is it.

FYI this should be in the zoas forum but let me take a stab. Look on the colony for critters, nutibranchs are a big contributor for this sorta stuff. Next check for white dots, it could also be zoa pox

Thanks I am not seeing neither
I am fairly new to the hobby and apologize for the wrong location

Zoa specific so these guys/gals should be able to help you out.

I would dip the unopening polyps in Revive just to be safe. It won't stress your coral but it will know off any offending critter. Also do a search for zoa pox and see if those zoas have them.

Wow, 2 thumbs up for posting the video as it really answers a lot of questions already.

1. How long have you had them.

2. Is a few weeks, 2 weeks or 3 weeks or more?

3. Did you do anything, making any changes, additives, fish, lights, live stock etc, anything pror to or just before the retraction began?

4. Can you list all of your parameters?

Check out the 2 links below and see if anything rings a bell. Hope to hear back from you soon. Good luck my friend.
