Got a frag of cyphastrea meteor shower for Xmas.Any tips on keeping it healthy?

i'm in the same boat as you, just got in last night, waiting for him to open, yours open yet? or is he not in the tank yet?

They are hardy for me. Medium light, mid tank works for me. Constant medium flow but not strong direct flow. When the small polyps extend they will accept small planktonic sized food.

About what i have them at, how long after shipping would you worry if they weren't open yet? I've had a zoa i got take almost a week after shipping, but all my other corals were locally bought, this is my first actual online order. him and the dendro are the only ones not open at this point, the war coral, two acans, and hammer are all open, the brain is slightly open.

by the way, sorry for the hijack but your topic fit my question well.

Mine came by overnight courier.Not decided where exactly to put it yet.Atm it's on the sandbed on it's frag plug in medium flow,low light.Today it's all open and I can see it's also encrusted down the edges of the frag plug.

Mine is on day 2 of not opening now, from what I hear they are fairly hardy. The water he came in was a bit dirty compared to the rest but I also had an acan that the bag lost most of the water and he is doing well, already ate for me, hoping the meteor pulls through as I love the coloration.
