mine were once again starting to look terrible... half way open or closed. I tested for phosphate with the hanna and got a reading of 0.06ppm. I recently had a coral beauty angelfish die so im assuming it had something to do with the phosphate spike. I did a 10gal wc and instantly the zoos appeared to extend fully once again. Not exactly your issue i know, but its amazing how sensitive these things are.

I am using phosphate resine so not much of a problem here. I use ferric oxyde.

But yes they are extremely sensitive. I think water change is very benificial for them.
