Salinity should be 1.25 so it's a tad high.

I believe your nitrates are 20 right? what test kits are you using?

Zoas not opening

Hey everyone I have had my zoas for about a month now when I first got them they all opened up nicely and recently I noticed only 2 of them have opened, what am I doing wrong here. Nitrite-0 Phos-0 Nitrate-0 PH-8.2 Salt-1.025 Calcium- 450 Alkalinity-12

What’s wrong with these zoas?

Got a drag of some zoas from my lfs for a tester coral for my tank and they won’t open even though the ricordia next to them looks happy. Could it be too high of flow or are the lights on too high? They seem all shrunken up. I have a power head right above them. Water parameters Salinity 35ppm...

Gotta have a little dirt in your water 0 for nitrite and nitrate isn’t great for zoas
