Zoas not opening

[Andreas' Reef]

Hi


I just bought 2 frags and had them shipped and ending up getting a 3rd zoa frag as a freebie. The shipment arrived 5-6 days ago and The freebie is not opening. The gsp and utter chaos are open and happy but the freebie isn’t. Idk why tho. I did a 20 minute float, then a drip acclimation, then a coral dip so I acclimated correctly. Is this something zoas just do??

Utter chaos:

frag that won’t open:

Some adjust later than others.
Make sure he’s not, overlit.

He has mid light so I think he’s fine,

tooo much flow maybe

Idk if it’s that either. He seems to be getting lower flow but I’ll post an fts because I’m fat from an expert

I agree with trying it in lower light. I've had to move some of my zoas to surprising low light before they would open up.

yeah you can also check if theres some kind of vermitid snail or something on the plug
