I have a friend who was in the hobby for awhile and had a great coral collection. Well he got busy and the tank fell by the wayside. Well by the time he eventually decided to sell his stuff alot of the corals where dead, dying or needed lots of help.
The only thing I was interested in and felt I could bring back was his sun coral. It had roughly 50 heads on it when he had it, and is now down to 10 large heads and maybe 20 smallish heads.
When I first got it, it wouldnt open to feed or open ever for that matter. Well now a month in my care and its open almost all the time. I have been feeding it daily in a seperate container as to not polute my tank.
My question is, it doesnt seem to be growing at all. Are they very slow growers? am I missing something in my chemestry?
I dont dose anything so have no idea what my levels are aside from ammonia, nitrates and salinity.
Any tips would be great.
Thanks
