When would green duncan's open up?

[Dave2245]

Yesterday I just received some corals from WWC, They are great! So far all had open up but one which is the green duncan coral. Have others experience this do it take time for the green duncan corals to open up.

Mine took a few days to settle in, but then it was open constantly. Once it opens up , be sure to offer it some meaty food like mysis or mine loves thawed bits of reef frenzy .

Okay great how often I should feed it?

I don't think there's a set timeframe on this, maybe once per week. I feed frozen twice per week and make sure to hit my duncans

Yep like tuffy suggested, I usually feed frozen 2xs week and some mysis over wknd for treat. Small amounts go along way

I feed my tank with reefroids twice a week and they seem very happy.

They’ll open if your tank is ready for them. They may sleep until your next nights on period. I have never fed mine because I’m a bad guy but they seem to catch enough light and leftover food I feed the fish

be careful with feeding reef roids 2x per week .

will raise phosphates fast

Thanks, I try not using too much of the reefroid.Doing weekly water change is keeping all the parameters in check.
