Hey reefers,
I've had this beautiful orange NPS gorgonian for probably almost two months now. For the first two weeks, I was having really good luck with it. It's polyps were always out, always willing to take food from target feeding a mix of PhytoFeast, Rotifers and Reef Chili.
Over the past three weeks, though, its polyps have barely ever been out, it seems to still be alive. It's not rotting or anything. I know they shed, and I believe that's what it's doing, but for this long? I think it's having trouble shedding, today after doing a water change I kinda helped its shed come off, and I've noticed the polyps ever so slowly beginning to peak out. So I'm wondering if I should help it further?
I'd like to hear some other reefers experiences with these NPS gorge and see if there's any similar situations.
Thank you!
