because the coral doesnt come out for food feeding it by hand is impossible , hence the tupper ware method.

take a tupperware container fill with salt water , place your suncoral in it and pollute the water with smelly foods leave the suncorals in there for a long time .when im acclimating suncorals that dont open in the morning i take the suncorals and put them in a container and float them in my sump when i get off work suncorals go back in the tank , by that time they are puffy.they take cold waters well. depending on how food deprived the coral is plays a part in how long the acclimation process is.

suncorals use energy to open for food they get that energy back from the food , no food no energy , so if they arnt guaranteed a meal they wont come out,eventually they shut down, its alot of consistent work to bring them back.

youll need to do this for a week possibly longer untill it comes out fully or stays out in whcih case you switch to meaty foods.

if your suncoral is alive this will work.
