Thanks again Greg. I rushed home to add my new corals only to find my Coral Beauty dead. Ah well you win some and you lose some.

...only some of my zoas have opened up all the way..others only have little bits of the skirts out and others have no extension yet what so ever. I'll give them time (I've read some threads where it takes some zoas two, three weeks even) but of course the ones that aren't opened yet are the ones that I'm most excited about...grrrr

I've got them scattered throughout the tank, but I'm thinking of moving them all into a zoa garden sort of. There's one area where my zoas that have brown skirts and deep green plates opened up right away...and have stayed open. I might move all the frags in that area and let em go nuts...


any suggestions?

I have one zoa frag that hasent opened yet too. I still have my fingers crossed that they will. One of the sps frags was bleached out this morning. Too bad it was a nice looking big piece.

Still, nice frags and great price!

most of my zoo's are doing the same thing, anything thats open has not opened fully, the skirts are still in. And a couple have some polyps falling apart but it looks like at least some of each color will pull through

I'll give it a while...20+ hours in a bag isn't the most ideal environment, so we'll give it time.

I had bad luck with this order. The two zoa's I got were not the ones I ordered, but they did open. What ever #95 is hasn't opened yet (only 2 polyps on the frag, there should have been at least 3-4) and #96 half the frag was doa

I ordered 95 as well, it didn't look like much of anything. It hasn't opened up yet either. At this point i'm assuming it's dead. But aside from that all my other frags are looking great.
