Hey everyone, those who own birds of paradise birdsnest coral, what PAR do you have them at?
I have a small colony I picked up, when I received it the top portion was light green but some of the inner portions appear bleached.
I'm getting okay polyp extension.. but I think it could be happier. At first there was a portion that had no extension and I think it was getting hit by the return pump flow. Now i'm getting good extension on portions of it and just so so in other areas, primarily the top. I'm curious if it's getting too much light.
How much polyp extension should I expect (have any pictures)?
Will the green come back?
I'm pretty new to SPS, I have a stylo as well that is happy as can be.. seems that can handle more light and flow.
