My green is doing great, my Candy is doing a little better but still doesn't look to good. The heads are still shrunken and have not inflated. I am getting only a really week feeding response from them. I don't know if it's a light issue, a water flow issue or what.

FYI: I have actually never intentionally fed the CC and my frag setup doesn't really receive much of maintenance either, so I wouldn't really classify this CC as picky coral by any means. Only thing I notice from the posts is that you guys get some really nasty stuff coming out of your taps (300+ ppm TDS). But I'm sure everybody uses RO-DI.
The only supplement I use for these is iodine, but that is mostly for the fingers. Alk runs around 8 dKH and Ca around 350 mostly from Ca reactor.
CC doesn't like direct bright light, but fingers do. Easy on the current too for the CC, otherwise heads will grow smaller.
Thanks again guys, I'm sure all will be well in few weeks.

Default Candy Cane

Thanks for the note Denis. I only have 105 watts of combined light on my 29 so I don't think that too much light would be an issue. Candy is sitting about halfway down in the tank. Water flow is about 15-17 times per hour, again Candy is in a fairly calm spot in the tank. I am adding iodine. Calcium is sitting at 380-400. Water is from Leduc not Edmonton so it is a little better. I'm not sure what else I can play with, any ideas?

P.S. The colors are great, I'll just feel better when the Candy starts to look a little better. Thanks again Denis.

Shane
