Hi all,
Ordered and received a pretty large yellow Fiji a few days ago. Stuck it down about 12” under surface. Since Tuesday noonish, it’s gone from pale and deflated when initially received, to puffed up and much more yellow with polyps extended yesterday, back to pale and laying down. Little worried this morning it may not be adjusting well.
I know leathers tilt and swell cyclically. But the color fade is a little alarming.
Seeing this, would anything suggest too much or too little light?
How can I help it stand back up?
Specs:
Aquatop 24
Reefi uno (AB, dialed back, 100W)
Alk 9
Phos 0.10ppm
Nitrate 3ppm
Ca 475
Mg 1200
SG 1.025
78F
Morning
Couple hours later
