Newbe Help/Suggestions

[robert wilbourn]

This was recently given to me by someone who had to move out of town and shut down their tank. I'm new to the hobby and and looking for suggestions that may help. Water parameters are good, lighting is Current orbit Marine LED. Location is mid of Biocube 29.

They look ok for now, how long have they been in there? Like most corals, it can take a while for them to fully open after a drastic change in chemistry. Even if your chemistry is in range, it may be quite different than the previous owners. Did you dip the coral before putting it into your display? They're just zoas so unless something is crazy out of whack... they should come around. If they get worse... then something is off.

I drop them to a lower level on the tank and they are improving on a daily basis. I think the lighting was a bit too strong.

Zoas for the most part can be placed anywhere, so if you have other corals thriving high in the tank, the zoas should be unaffected.
