RFA in cave

[JoJosReef]

My unhappy purple RFA (often shrinking up where it was sitting for a few weeks) finally took a walk and ended up between two rocks in a cave with no light. I'm not bothering it, but should I do something like shoot some mysis/egg food down there? It is all sqished up in there, so hard to see--you'll have to zoom.

Your other RFAs appear fine, I would just let it do what it wants at this point. They'll move where they like it. I have about 5 RFAs in a nano (12 gallon) and 3 have never moved and are in light heavy spots, one is in the shade on a rock face, never gets light....then there's "LARRY". Larry is currently upside down under a rock and looks to be doing just fine. I'm sure by next week he'll be in some other terrible spot where you can't see him.

Bad outlook. It was hanging on upside down by a little toe, so I let him fall into my hand and put him an a little glass makeshift ICU under light. Will see if it moves its foot around or if it's a goner :(

He doesn't look good. I'm sorry for your luck. I burnt one with a chunk of salt that came off the tank and it took a hit, but still recovered. They are usually pretty hardy.

This one hasn't been too happy since it arrived. Latched onto a shady side of a rock and frequently shrunk up into hiding. Shame, because it was a color not usually seen.
