Default Clove Polyps

Hey,

Does anyone have some tips or tricks for these little guys, I made the mistake of impulse buying them thinking they would be as hardy as regular polyps or zoo's but it seems they are a little more tricky.. I increased my light time in the tank for them and a few heads are starting to come out. Its only been a week so i'm sure they need time to adjust.. I guess my main question is do they just feed off plankton and light.. or should I be adding something in there for them.

I give mine med-high light and med flow. No other special care.

They are very easy to care for and will grow like a weed, they require lower light and med flow. If they are not doing well, I would try a soft coral or iodine supplement.
