So while on vacation (From Alaska) near Orlando I, of coarse, had to visit WWC. My wife and I where very impressed at the selection and had to pick up some "souvenirs" to bring home. They where awesome and packed them up nicely into a 1gal cooler we checked it inside our luggage and flew home. Once home I floated the bags for temp and added them to the tank (did not drip acclimate or coral dip). The other frags including zoas, lepto, goni, and fungi quickly opened up, and are so far looking great, but the clove is closed up tigh. I have had it in two locations, both lower light, with mixed medium/low, and low flow for about 2 days each (4 days total).
I'm not sure if i'm worrying too much (as in let it be just relax), or if i should try to move it to a new area.
I'm a newb with cloves so any input would be appreciated.
Additional info: Testing after i got back (gone for 2 weeks) calcium and mag where fine, but PH and Alk where low, Alk was around 6.1, slowly raising it currently at 7.7 (aiming for 8.5+/-) and PH is at 7.5
