Purchased and received 2 leathers this past Friday.

I did a dip with coral rx for about 10 minutes.

One is a tan finger leather

The other is a green hairy finger leather

While they look a bit better than they did Friday, I’m not sure how long it should take to see them looking decent.

Here is my green sinulara which perked up in a couple days when I got it about 3 months ago

Any help, advice, or a “that’s normal” would be great.

I would just keep an eye on them. Leathers get p*ssed and it can go on for days.

Thanks WV Reefer. They are in lower light, decent flow for now. Is that ok?

That should be a good start for them. Hopefully they’ll get it together soon. :)
