GSP Closed UP
 
I have a GSP that I put in the tank about a week ago. It opened up after a day and looked like long flowing hair(kind of like I used to have). I did a water change earlier yesterday and ever since it has been closed. Is it tool early to worry?

my experience is that coral has a mind of its own and yeh mine close for days at a time. IMO nothing to worry about.

I wouldn't worry, mine closes up for a couple days every now and again. How are your other corals doing?

Mine, at times, have closed for weeks. I would think "uh-oh" and then it would open up and spread like wildfire. Unless it starts melting, dont worry about it to much.

ya that coral always worries people when it does not open back up. It can take a while for the GSP to get used to the tank.

Other corals are well, at present I only have 4 53Watt T5s for a 75 Gallon tank but every thing seems OK. I also put in a green digi a week or so ago and so far so good.

Thanks for all the replies, I keep telling my wife that the aquarium is supposed to lower my stress.

from the picture you sent it looks fine. Your lighting is fine, as I have a t5 4 bulb unit and have all types of coral including GSP growing in my tank.

ya right, I say the same thing, but there is always something in there to increase the stress. If it's not the coral then it's the fish, if not that then something else.
