Very nice I wish you success with your new coral.

Their mouth is entirely too small for mysis or even brine shrimp.I got my first platygyra yesterday. Your coral growth looks good. I tried feeding mysis shrimp today, but it did not eat. They were just stuck to its tentacles.
I am not sure, but I suspect a lot of what is sold as platygyra may be other genera like Oulophyllia or species of Favia. Look at how high the ridges separating the corallites are, for example, on the 'platy' in my profile photo. One of those garbage-can taxa where everything that looks like a maze is thrown. Anyhow - got pics?
Do you know how much par yours are getting? I have a big square one probably 4 inches accross that was a gift. I've had it a year or longer and it has never done well. It is finally getting fleshy but not much color. It is concave and has its own little eco system on its bottom side of the skeleton but nothing think could bother it through the skeleton.
I don’t know the PAR, sorry. I could guess but that might lead you in the wrong direction. I have 3 platygyra and the one that is that color is super slow growing compare to the other 2Do you know how much par yours are getting?
