Aquarium Advice Addict
I went ahead and got a leather finger coral at the LFS, talked him down to $30 for a nice size one attached to a piece of rock. Got it home and it did not open up and extent the hair like polyps, even after feeding DTs. It started to turn a light brown color and I got worried. Today i noticed the light brown skin was sluffing off of the coral and the hair like polyps were starting to come back out. Is this normal? i thought it could be algea, but I do not have it anyplace else in the tank. Parameters...Amonia and nitrite at zero, nitrate is up a bit at 5, SG is 1.024, temp is 80, ph is 8.2. Everything else in my tank is doing great. Do you think my leather is on the rebound? Thanks...Lando
