With no polyps out, that would be pointless. If feeding the tank mysis or brine shrimp doesn't illicit a feeding response, rotifers aren't going to do anything.

The ones in our store are slowly coloring back up with polyp extension but it's in a spot with a tunze 6045 pointed basically right at it...

I'll post a pic after work. The color is the better than weeks past. It directly across from mp10 with low flow. No bugs as I dipped it and all other Sps are good.

I do weekly water change of 5 gal on 30 gal system. Use prodibio

I found it really hard to keep a true Aussie Strawberry Shortcake" Acropora microclados. I had few frags from several different sources and the only one that survived is the one I got from Don which came from a massive colony that has been growing in captivity, even though I think it looks more like a strawberry lime cake which is closer to purple poison short cake. I did acquire another piece thats sitting in the frag tank, it has only been a few weeks but its starting to grow a tiny bit around the bottom but yet the color is still brown. I guess only time will tell.
