Re: green eyed polyps question
It's probably going to take them some time to acclimate to the tank. Maybe the star polyp blooming so early after being re-homed was a fluke? I'd give them a little time and to get used to the new environment before I worry.

Re: green eyed polyps question
How big is your tank? I ran 4 54 watt t-5's on a 50 gallon and kept all corals under it, sps, lps softies.If it is the type of fixture that has indivdual reflectors for each bulb then you're good to go.
Not really sure what you mean by "green eyed poylp" my guess is you could have it too high in the tank and it's getting too much light. Try placing it in the bottom of the tank and give it a week and see how it is doing. |

Re: green eyed polyps question
Iwould move it to the floor and give it a week to see if it will open more. Sounds like it needs to adjust to your light intensity.
