Rookie mistake. I bought this Duncan not long after setting up the tank because I heard they were "easy".
Those 2 bleached branches were there when I bought it. Stupidly, I superglued it to the main rock before I realised it should have sat lower in the tank. Until now, it only extended it's polyps when the lights were off at night (normal) and before the lights were on in the morning in ambient light.
Finally, I think it has adapted to the light conditions and starting to enjoy life.
Update: Torch is fully extended this morning, looking great 😁
Bought some branching hammers however this is what they look like. Should I be concerned or is this normal
Need some help identifying this one. It’s Stoney and during the night it retracts leaving a bunch or bumps/spines sticking up.
What do you think about these polyp expansion?🪸 Run my tank on Modern Reef RKS.
Does anyone have any tips for this Gani? I got it for free and the guy said that he could never get it to open up.
New polyps growing!
Update on the Duncan and the shrimp starts to come out more during feeding
