Zoanthids wont open

[Nicksal]

Hello everyone,
Some reason my white zombie zoanthids won't open? Any ideas most of my other zoanthids are opening. I went to the local fish store and had my water tested. I will post what they gave me. Please let me know if you have any idea why they are not opening.

Did you light acclimate them? Did you dip?

I dipped them and drip acclimate for 30 min

What about LIGHT acclimation which is way more important than drip acclimation. Where did you place them in the tank when you got them? How long have they been closed?

From my experience It takes a few days, maybe a week for Zoas to acclimate especially after a dip. It's good you dipped the zoas, those are well known critter magnets.
