New coral not opening

[Jon Fishman]

I wouldn’t even temp acclimate a GSP..... they are super forgiving. With that said, any length of time in salinity that low is not going to be good.

What temp do you run your tank at? What is your water source? How much/often do you change water?

Temperature: 25°c I use RODI water, I change 20% water once a week

I was buying aiptasia (long story) three days after it had been in my tank two tiny green star polyps emerged I feed them reef roids and now I have about twenty.

They are stubborn and can take a week to open up. Acclimation is important and mixing/blending water is important. They are not fans of low salinity. Thet prefer moderate water flow and salinity of 1.026. WHAT is Your Salinity level?
