Hi! I’ve been observing my new acros lately. The polyps seem to close up after water changes, but come out maybe a day before the next water change. My torch coral also seems to be happier today, the day before my next water change. It’s brighter and more open. I usually do 30% water changes every week. The tank is 25-gallons with two clowns, a royal gramma, and a pistol shrimp. I feed the tank twice a week, but I usually aim for three times. I also plan on getting more fish, specifically a goby for the pistol shrimp, a firefish, and maybe a neon goby. I have Duncans, two acros, a monti, two favias, pulsing Xenia, green star polyps, birdsnest, palys, hairy mushroom, one anemone, and a torch. Should I do smaller water changes? I tried directing the flow to the acros because I thought that was the problem, but this might be it.
