Hey everyone,

just recently purchased a Coral pack from WWC. I have three thathad no issues acclimating and opening up as soon as a I put them in the tank. Another which is a zoa arrived looking a little weird and has only changed slightly.. (I think). The last coral I have an issue with is a winter green pipe organ coral which opened up very quickly after putting it in the aquarium but after the first night with the lights off it never reallyopened back up.


Any help or
I started off by placing all frags in my sand bed to get them used the light slowly.

How long has it been? I’ve some take a few weeks to get used the tank.
 
It’s only been a few days. These are my first corals so I’m not too sure how long is appropriate to expect for them to acclimate. I guess I was concerned because some opened instantly and the other two have been struggling
