Chrisl1976 Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 I got a Blue Zoo order Wednesday morning. The Glove polyps (8/9 of like 25 head open) and zoa colony (zero are opening) as being really slow to come open up. The duncan and nem I got along with it are doing great. Have any of you experienced this length of time before things opened up? Link to comment
Chris! Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 They probably took a pretty good beating in shipping, they look like they want to open just arent yet.... did you dip them?? Link to comment

Chrisl1976 Posted January 31, 2015 Author Share Posted January 31, 2015 The glove polys looks like its going explode, but the zoas are closed up pretty tight except for a few Link to comment
Chris! Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 I'd give them a little more time personally. As long as they don't have pests they don't look to be in horrible shape, probably just took a beating in shipping and likely got pretty cold. Did you notify Blue Zoo? Sometimes eventho they techniqually arrived alive places will give you credit on something like this if they don't ever end up opening up properly within a couple weeks. Link to comment
Benny314 Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 I had some zoas on a rock in my new display and I finally got the lighting running Monday, they had been sat with almost no direct light since before Christmas and they are now only just starting to open up. Took 4 days. I thought they'd open straight up on getting proper light. I was wrong. As said they're probably just pissed after shipping and need time to adjust and de-grump lol. Link to comment
