Have a red serpent star for about a month...a good 12" tip to tip...

Really does not seem to do well in my DT...lawnmower blennie checks him for algae...not sure if he eats...tried hand feeding with little success...his center core seems to be turning whiteish...

Put him into 20 gal sump...seems OK, of course can't see him unless I move the chaeto...hate to have him live his life in there...

Have a 65g. with 5" NIGER, lattice bf, Syngapore angel, blennie, pj's...snails...

Any suggestions...think he'll eventually adjust...plenty of rock, places to hide...know he's nocturnal, but don't see much at 4AM...the lightening most alarms me...
 
Any pics of the disk?

Any chance he rubbed up on a heater..?? #reefsquad
 
Has it lost any limbs? Or looks like it is? That usually a good sign of poor health.
