Rough acclimation - is this normal?

[Austin Lee]

Hi all,

I picked up a couple corals from the WWC retail store yesterday. Got home and realized I didn’t have coral dip, so I kept them bagged for ~24 hours.

Got home this evening and dipped them in Bauer and they’ve been like this for 2 hours. Is this normal? Will they pull through?

If you can’t tell they’re a hammer and a war coral

They look a bit stress to me, but I think they should be fine. If you kept the water in the bag temp warm enough for them to survive I don't see any issues. Just keep an eye on then and hopefully they should open up properly.

Yeah I kept the bag at room temp all day. Crossing my fingers!
