What do you do when your red wines start getting smaller?
They are still opening up, just getting smaller.
 
yeah mine did great for a while too but only had 3 TINY polyps ~1/8" when open and they finally made it to 1/4" but then a couple of weeks and 1 by 1 they melted...
i hate expensive stuff!
 
had really good success with mine before.. at one time, I had over 125 polyps with 3 different mini colonies... but I'm down to a 2 polyps frag I receive back from a local reefer.. hope I'll have the same success as before... so far so good... :)

just for kicks.. :D

That is nice.
I'm wondering if the problem with my red wines has anything to do with adding vitamin C?
 
They did great for me till I lost 90% of Zs and Ps I had........I don't even like looking at pictures of zoanthids any more....


I would try more flow and lower light like Marv said.....
 
Im noticing a little irritation on my some of my Z's and P's. I dipped one in TPMCC, it reopened after a day or so....
 
if they "melted" away, you may want to check for Nudibranch's. I had the same thing happen with my PPE's and AOG's, so I FW dipped them and found a Nudi. I got some Flatworm exit, and nuked them all....it is the greatest Zoa Nudi treatment!
