Trachyphyllia

[Mick Callaghan]

Hi all,

I have had Trachyphyllia in the tank for about 6 months. It was doing ok untill about 3 months ago where it has retracted and does not puff out. I put it in the sump where it seems quite content and puffs out. Thinking it was an issue with low flow over it, i added another power head to the tank last week and put the traccy in the good flow of watet. It still will not puff out. Can anyone suggest anything? Mick

low flow area for more type of brain coral.

They like lower flow, like clown nut mentioned.

Have you changed your lighting or lighting schedule at all? Bulb change? If using LEDs were any adjustments made?
