Hello,

I recently got some zoas yesterday. All of them opened really well and seem to have acclimated quite well the tank. Although, one Zoa hasn’t open yet. I’m a bit worried about it. I heard that sometimes it can take days for zoas to open. I just wanted to see if there is something I can do for it. Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
Here is a pic:

Sometimes they can get stressed from the move and take some time to settle in and calm down. It just looks angry to me. I’ve gotten them before and take 3 or 4 days to finally open up. I would give it another day or two and see what happens.

Ok, I’ll wait and see. It doesn’t look worse from day 1 which is encouraging.
 
One of the first zoa frags I added took almost a week longer to open compared to other zoas i added at the same time. A year later its now one of my fastest growing colonies
 
I’ve had zoas take as long as a couple months to open. Just leave it alone and give it time. So long as it’s not disintegrating, it’s fine.
 
zoas act like this all the time, always some open n some close, that is why hard to see them fully open when we taking a pics on zoas colony. takw time on new zoas, they open evevturally
