GiantBen Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Got this guy in the mail today. Very little water in the bag. Looks kinda rough to me, but I have nee had one before. What do you guys think? Link to comment
Lnm130 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I think he looks ok, just give hime a little time to adjust. When they look pissed off, they look extra pissed due to their structure. Link to comment
Kierik Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 These guys are tough even if it starts to die do not toss it. I had a fugia several years ago start to die (died back 90%) and formed isolated colonies. These colonies poped off a plate about once every 6 months and at the peak was putting out a new plate every 3 weeks. I think you are ok though because there is some testicle extension and there doesnt seem to be much mechanical damage. Link to comment

Chyendra Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 I agree with all of the above. If you have lugols iodine or another coral protectant type dip, I would dip it to prevent bacterial infection. Otherwise just leave it alone and give it some time. Feed is some mysis (or any food really) with the powerheads off for a bit Link to comment
GiantBen Posted January 22, 2011 Author Share Posted January 22, 2011 Thanks guys. I put some mysis on it, but my clown, psuedohromis and cleaner shrimp stole most of it. We'll see where it is at in a few days. Link to comment
