Floundering_Around Posted June 29, 2018 my new yellow finger hasn't really opened. I've seen polyps twice and it was only five to ten on a 2+ inch frag. Any tips? Quote Link to comment
CarolinaShoreReef Posted June 30, 2018 Is it in high flow and low light with no algae growing on it? Quote Link to comment

It's directly across from my powerhead (have the flow running lengthwise across my tank), sitting on my substrate, and it's a new frag so no algae. It finally opened last night after my post, go figure, but before that, it was hardly opening even at night. What's the trick to getting NPS to opening during the day? Quote Link to comment
CarolinaShoreReef Posted July 7, 2018 If you’re still having trouble maybe find it a spot in lower light if possible. I didn’t catch that it was new. It took mine about 10-12 days after getting it to have it open up like that and now it does everyday and has grown nicely. I feed it 4oz of pods and 4oz of phyto weekly in a 25g lagoon (holds 15g water). Quote Link to comment
Floundering_Around Posted July 8, 2018 Just rearranged the tank and it stopped opening up. It's still on the sand bed so the light is the same but maybe it isn't getting the same flow? I'm confused, some sources say these are also NPS so lighting doesn't matter. Quote Link to comment
Floundering_Around Posted July 9, 2018 It looks like every time I'm worried about my corals, as long as I post on this thread they magically open up literally minutes after. Hmmmmm... Quote Link to comment
