scapone Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 OK I now have a candy cane frag, and a beautiful yellow polyp frag, and Saturday i will probably get a nice mushroom rock. My question is about the photo periods. I find that corals crumple up like prunes if there is no light in the tank at all. when the actinic are on the the candy opens up a lot the yellow polyps are open as well. when the 10k is on both corals are open but the candy cane is not as open as he was under the actinic what gives. also when am I supposed to directly feed the candy cane i never saw it's tentacles and Ive seen people say they feed at "night" what does that mean? does it mean under actinic lighting? or under no lighting?

enrico Posted February 5, 2004 Share Posted February 5, 2004 photo period -> 10 to 12 hours for standard lights, a bit more for actinics... Caulastrea feeding time -> give it time to adapt to your tank. The (very little) tentacles will come out after sometime (maybe an hour or two) the lights are off and until they are on again in the morning Link to comment
