Hello, I purchased a beautiful red goni from my LFS on 3/13. It was fully extended (all of the dozen or so frags were).

My params
Alk 8.1 (very steady I might add)
Po4 .21
No3 30
Par 118 (apogee 510)

LFS said their par was 100 to 125

The frag has yet to extend at all and just looks angry. I tried my best with the photos and I attached a video to demonstrate flow. Any help?

I have basically the same parameters and several gonis including a red one. It's still acclimating to your system. Make sure low to low moderate flow
 
while Gonis can go into higher lighting its best to start them out on the bottom next to the glass leave them be till u get full extension than work them up
