So roughly a week ago i got a fevia PPE aka event herizion, now a week later it has held it's color but it seems one of the cuts closest to one of the eye's seems to have reduced to the eye. Would you saggest this is stress from shipping or somthing is wrong? I have a few other fevia's that are all fine and growing, along with all other sorts of sps/lps/poly's. The only thing that i would say would be diffrent is that my poly's/zoas are playing musical chairs on not opening. It seems ever other day a diffrent paly wont open, but the one that didnt open yesterday is open the next day always. Which does not raise any red flags in my book, or that i know it should.

- Only thing that i have donw since i got it, was my one weekly water change along with i started doesing brightwell restor roughly 1-2 weeks ago ever few days to help with my purples (which i do see a big diffrence in my Purple monster)

Parameteres are as fallowed and havn't changes much since the tank has been set up.

Cal- 500-550
Alk- 9.5
Mag- 1400
All others are fine except po4, i ran out of test so i was not able to run a test.

*one thing is since day one i had it shaded on sand bed in low flow. Now i moved it yesterday to low flow and not so shaded.
 
Seems like everything is okay. I would wait it out a few weeks because usually when I get a shipment in for example...Acans, when I acclimate them, it takes around 3-4 weeks till they start FULLY blooming. Give it some time. MY water Parameters are really similar to yours.
