Jan 28, 2014 #4 OP OP B buhajer2 Aquarium Advice Regular Joined Jan 19, 2014 Messages 57 Closed zoas, dose it take time to open. Or shall i change its location.
Feb 1, 2014 #5 Ej_b1996 Aquarium Advice Activist Joined Nov 23, 2012 Messages 159 Some corals take time to open But zoas in general don't take too long But if they do you shouldn't worry too much If it stays closed for 2+ weeks though I would start to get worried Zoas are really hardy and shouldn't be too hard to take care of Good luck!

Feb 1, 2014 #11 OP OP B buhajer2 Aquarium Advice Regular Joined Jan 19, 2014 Messages 57 So i just make the solution and dip it for 5 min then rinse it before i retain it ti my tank.
Feb 1, 2014 #12 trnewsom Aquarium Advice Apprentice Joined Dec 26, 2013 Messages 45 I dipped mine in coral rx and used a baster to blow off what I could of the film before putting back in tank. Majority died but some were saved.

Feb 2, 2014 #14 OP OP B buhajer2 Aquarium Advice Regular Joined Jan 19, 2014 Messages 57 Do dead coral rise the ammonia in pico tank 6g?
Feb 2, 2014 #15 Ej_b1996 Aquarium Advice Activist Joined Nov 23, 2012 Messages 159 I don't think so? I'm not sure I've never really had any corals die yet
