Today i bought a gsp, birdsnest, zoa ,and xenia. I dipped them using coral rx and then put them into my tank on a rack. I left for about an hour and i come back and my acans have closed up and my octospawn is acting different. The xenias are pulsating but theyre wilted looking, the gsp hasnt opened, the birdnest has opened, is there something wrong? did they release anything? Why are my existing corals acting differently when i added new corals?

Btw i got these from a person ive never delt with before so i dipped them carefully

They are acclimating, ya got to give it some time. Did you rinse the new frags in display water or sw before putting them back in the tank?

Any time my hands are in the tank for a couple minutes my corals often look a little different.

Always trouble shoot water chemistry when ruling out possible coral stress.
