After you peroxide dip a frag plug how long do y'all usually find it takes for full polyp extension/opening to resume? (Presuming the polyps were mostly open before you started)

With mine it totally depends on the zoa, some opened up the same day others took several days.
While battling GHA I had to dip several times and the same zoas took days to open. I thought I had lost two because of the length of time it took to open, but nothing was lost.
In my experience most open back up as normal within 24 hours. My rastas took the longest and it was closer to ~36 hours.
If I have to re-treat for algae on the same frag I give it ~48-72 hours after it goes back to normal before I treat again.
