I am having a small issue with my rose tip that has me concerned. About a month ago a friend came over and handed me a bag with a rose tip nem in it. Apparently he had had it in his tank for about a month and it wouldn't attach to any of the rock. He gave it to me to give it a try so I figured why not. After a couple of days in my tank it attached but not for long. It moved several times and never stayed in any one spot for more than a day. About a week ago it FINALLY attached to a spot under an overhang in my rockwork. Each time it attached before it would open up about half way but ever since it attached in its present location it has not opened more than a little bit. Anyone have any idea as to what would cause this behavior.
I check my parameters twice a week and nothing is out of the ordinary
Ammonia=0
Nitrites=0
Nitrates= <20 I can never get this to read 0
PH= 8.2 on average, However it did drop to 7.8 about two weeks ago but has since returned to normal.
Calcium= 450ppm
Phosphates= 0
I have tried feeding a couple of times and it will not take anything I have tried. ie silversides, krill, mysis, brine. I've kept nems before but decided to focus more on corals so I haven't had one until now.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
