Back story: On Saturday, I decided to clean my GSP of the hair algae that was bothering it. Some would close and some would open. So I took it out and brush the hair algae away with hydrogen peroxide (diluted with rodi). I glue it back on the same rock but different place.
Top right is the original place with 2 sprout of GSP, middle is the new place.
Unfortunately, the GSP is still closed up since Saturday.

So.. did I kill it?

I don't think its nutrient issue since the 2 small sprout open up. And no issues with the zoas.

pH: 8.0 - 8.2 (Night,Day)
Alk: 8
NO3: 1
PO4: 0.03
Ammonia: 0

Peroxide may have had an impact. I would have used liquid vibrant
GSP is tough and may bounce back but i again would have concern

That's what I thought. GSP is tough, and I'm not dipping it. Just brush it away.

At this time, I am praying that the 2 small sprout will lives on and conquer this rock
