walk into a bar. No wait, a 2.5gal "QT" tank...
My question: Is the GSP dead? Is the Sinularia dead? Why won't the GSP or Sinularia open their polyps? Why are the Candy Cane and Mushroom doing great while the other two soft corals are lifeless. How can I tell if a coral/frag is actually dead?
I can provide pictures if you would like but the turbidity of the water makes it difficult.
Thanks for your time and advice!! If I have to throw some out, I will, I just want to see if I can salvage the Sinularia or GSP...
- Water is now consistently green
- 1/3 of the tank is thriving thick-filament Chaeto
- GSP's been retracted for days
- Sinularia is bent over and has yet to open polyps
- Mushroom is expanded and doing well
- Candy Cane is "thriving"
