NCNBilly Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 I've had this guy for about a month now, he's in a 10 gallon, high flow tank, 70W MH and 28w Actinic, about in the middle. When the lights first come on, he extends all his polyps. After about an hour or so, he starts to pull them back. He'll leave 4 or 5 out of 30 out at any one time for the rest of the day period until lights out when they all retract. Is this normal, or is he still aclimating to the light? Link to comment
SaltyDawg Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 Aclimating to the light more than likely. Mine did that for 2 months when I moved it into my 29 from my 5.5. ( went from pc to halide.) now it about a foot tall with an 8 inch cap when it is fully expanded. Link to comment
BKtomodachi Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 Move it down temporarily at least. Link to comment
NCNBilly Posted December 17, 2004 Author Share Posted December 17, 2004 It seems to be staying open longer now - for about the first two hours. I'm going to wait it out - as long as it looks healthy I don't want to move it. Link to comment
