Mushroom Acclimation Period?

[reefandreptileautomation]

Hey All, is it normal for Mushrooms (Ricordea and Rhodactis specifically) to take a considerable amount of time to get acclimated. I have a few Ricordea Florida for about a month now and they barely open up big. I also have a couple Rhodactis that barely open up. I have some others that seem to be super happy but I think they are just the plain old discosoma. Please be aware I have many corals in my tank including SPS and LPS. They all seem to open up nice and big. Wondering if this is normal when you first get em. I do not have them in direct light and I measured the par around 100-150 where they are. My discos are nice and big and in direct lighting and have a par of at least 200+.

They take longer to open than discosomas, but a month is awhile to still not have opened, how much flow are they in?

Hello. They are in pretty decent flow. I wouldn’t say a lot but maybe medium flow.

Maybe move them to a lower flow spot and see if they relax and open up for ya.
