yellow pollyps dying

[ffwalker]

hi everyone please can you help me befor its too late i brought some yellow pollyps on a small piece of rock about 3 weeks ago there were doing great then seemed to be unhappy so i moved them lower and out of the main current as i read pollyps dont like to be in high current, since then they have nearly all died off so i have now moved them back to where i had them to begin with is there anything i can do to help whats left of them build back up to a healthy size?

I keep yellow polyps in a 75 gallon aquarium with only a 40 watt single strip light on top. Mine are in a direct current that alternates on and off. They seem to thrive when I feed some freeze dried brine shrimp cubes to my fish. I could be more about your water quality than lighting too.

my water is perfect i test it weekly and my salinity is 0.024 which is still right my zenia coral is doing really well so it cant be my water quality. is there any other advice you have?

Yellow polyps LIKE current! move them back to where they were happy last.

I hope you meant 1.024 on your salinity...

Anyway, i have mine on an indirect flow and they seem to be thriving..
