Bought a scoly today

[canadianeh]

I got this scoly today. It came with water that 1.027. My tank is 1.025-1.026. I dipped it in revive and flatworm exit for 15 minutes.

It has been in my tank for the past hours. I noticed the side is receded (are the second picture).

is it okay?

Normal, I think for the soups he's been thru. Very resilient creatures. I got one and put him in the dt. The blue spotted puffer took 5 or 6 chunks out of him. I pulled the scoly and put in isolation guppy breeder at top of tank. You'd never know he had bites taken out of him a week later.
Hit and miss with that puffer, mostly miss.

So it will recover? It is not a disease?

Feed daily.
Either at lights out when they open or when feeding fish, drop a mysis near the mouth and feed when open in 5 minutes or so.

I have to drop a mysis near the mouth to get the mouth to open in 5 minutes before I can feed??! Sorry but did I misunderstand you?

Don’t coral normally open anyway if you drop food right on them?

Here is a pic with light out. You guys see the skeleton part that is showing? Again, is there anything wrong with it?
