I’m surprised by how well mine have been doing! Great polyp extension on everything, toadstools had pretty good extension the next day, even better the day after. Been dialing in my flow, I have quite a lot of flow around the edges of my tank, trying to dial that back a bit and redirect more through the middle of my tank. My nepthea was getting a lot of flow, it was moving around a bit, thought it was fine. Woke up yesterday to see it exploded into like 3 pieces lol. All are doing well though. Mushroom coral has great extension. The tiny rainbow polyps frag that I couldnt really see very well has opened up, I see about 3 small polyps.
My SPS has far exceeded my expectations. The free acro frag I picked up has some nice peaks forming on the flat edges where it was cut. Beach bum monti looks about the same. The rainbow monti I got has amazing polyp extension and color. The mystic sunset monti I got was pretty beat up, it was a very big frag, I think a part of it was exposed to air on the drive home. Color was initially very dull, some looked dead, polyps were very small and black. Now, most of the color has brightened up to that reddish orange color, about half of the polyps look bigger and brighter, they have that half black half baby bluish color now.
The dbtc spicy favia I picked up has been doing great. I’ve fed it once so far, its plumping up. I want to power feed it to get good growth, but also dont want to over do it. Whats a good schedule for target feeding LPS? There was a small broken plastic piece that the frag had encrusted over, it was flapping a bit and causing the tissue on the hinge to recede, so I cut that off, should have a frag available for someone in the near future!
