Got this lobo 1 week ago looked good for a night and then started looking poor moved from sand to mid tank then back to sand in this little cave thinking maybe he was getting to much light. Any ideas will help! Thanks!!
 
How often are you feeding it? Use chunky food every few days. I have had one for a couple years and it's up and down. I found that you have to be regular with them. Sometimes when I feed the fish the polyps don't extend. But when they do, I directly feed it.
 
Go out and buy some PE Calanus. Mix that with reef roids and it will be happy
