Title says it. I have several frags of zoas and they are always open, except my citrus. They will sometimes be open earlier in the day but often close later. Occasionally I will see a snail crawl over them or a fish swim too close but then they rarely reopen. All my others will reopen after a bit.

Radion XR15s 8” above water, no PAR readings yet. Frag is about 10” from surface of water, couple inches higher than the bam bam and dragon eyes. Running Radions LPS schedule at 45%.
Pics are taken at the same time. You can’t see but the citrus also has 6-10 tiny polyps growing along the back edge. Have searched after lights out for pests and haven’t seen anything, plus nothing is dying back or being eaten.
Everything else in the tank is fine. Frag of leptoseris and psammacora that are both growing fast.
Ideas? Only thing that makes sense is that’s it’s picky on lights or the flow. Growth of other corals leads me to believe it’s not the water.
