Rehype Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 Keep it low in your tank preferably on the sandbed. Link to comment

Psychosis Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 Awh man. Dibs on the first frag of the Sympodium. I'm at Elite all the damn time lately, but I have no idea if I've bumped in to you or not. Link to comment

I haven't been there too much lately my non fun job takes all my time lol. you have probably ran into my fiance though. Her name is crystal and she works there wednesdays and thursdays. Once the sympodium starts growing ill let you know. we will have to do a frag swap lol Link to comment
jgpico Posted March 18, 2012 Author Share Posted March 18, 2012 I think I am going to have to move my orange plate coral to my 14 gallon. I just cant find a good spot for it in the 3 gallon anymore. It hasnt looked very happy lately so I will try it in the 14. everyone with short tentacle plates please let me know what your best practices are with them. Link to comment

I haven't had one very long, but mine's in my 8g. I feed it mysis & other frozen foods. it's doing well so far. All puffy & happy. I'm sure you were doing the same thing. Probably just needed more space. L Link to comment
jgpico Posted March 20, 2012 Author Share Posted March 20, 2012 anyone have any ideas why these palys have not opened up any more than what you see in this pic? I have moved it to a different spot in the tank almost everyday and have had no luck with getting them to open. anyone have any ideas? Link to comment
Rehype Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Try giving it a coral rx or freshwater dip could be parasites or bacteria thats causing it to close. Link to comment
jgpico Posted March 20, 2012 Author Share Posted March 20, 2012 I will give that a try when I get home. I really hope that works because these are awesome palys. Link to comment

.Newman. Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 those look a lot like zoas as they do not have sand on their stems. most palys i have seen use the sand on their stems and zoas do not. plus those just look like zoas all closed up like that. Link to comment

I thought they could be zoas but wasnt 100% sure. The polyps are just bigger than any zoas i have had before. Link to comment
jgpico Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 Did a freshwater dip on the zoas and they are looking better already. Im hoping they open up all the way later today. If so ill snap a pic. Link to comment
