Yes but they got delayed and the temp of the Ice Pack inside was 114 Degrees.... Out Of 6 I only lost 1 .... They are pretty hardy most times... Sorry your having a sucky time...

This is how gonis look until they get acclimated. They'll pop out soon enough.

Nothing you can do but wait it out. Hopefully they bounce back.

Give them a little time, sometimes it takes a bit for them to acclimate to your tank even when transport it good.

I agree that they look like normal stressed gonnies. Give them a week and see what happens. In the meantime keep an eye out for any brown jelly or tissue loss indicating a bigger issue. You may also want to give them a bit more space, polyps extending from one could be keeping the one next to it closed up just by brushing up against it.

I also thought they looked normal the green is okay but the pink and the red both suffered rapid tissue loss shortly after I posted this after being in the tank 2hours and now they are just skeletons but the green is extending already

And the green was a freebie not my week!
