hey guys i got this xenia in today and idk why i thought shipping my first coral would be a good idea but anyways. i know xenias are decently hardy and have a good buffer for beginner mistakes. so i decided to start with that one. I dipped in a packet of coral Rx for the required time on packet and then rinsed it off in some clean saltwater. it’s been about two hours and he hasn’t opened up at all (a tiny bit when acclimating.) Please help!! Thanks :)

i’ve had trouble posting videos in past so let me know if you can’t see it

 
it needs time to adjust…..2 hours is not enough time for it to act completely normal after being shipped
