One of my zoas that i recently got was open the first couple of days when i got it and I had sitting on the rack for acclimation like I normally do for all my zoas. After those 2-3 days, I moved it down to a spot for it to grow out on. Every since I moved it, It has been only opening at night after my lights go off and stays open in the morning when my blues turn on but after the whites turn on, it closes up for the day until night time again. Anyone ever heard of this or have any suggestions that help the zoa stay open during the day? I have LEDs and currently, I have it sitting around 100-200 par. Its not melting and I have had it for about a week now. It just has a reverse cycle from the rest of my zoas.
 
I have it sitting at about 100-200 par as most of my other zoas and some in the 400-600 par range that are growing and doing well. I will move it under the shade of one of my tabling sps and see if it opens up during the day.
