6 weeks, and have always fully extended.How long have you had it.
They tend to grow like weeds.
You reckon may to much light ?Try moving to a different spot and check you kh and cal
Exactly, if water parameters were not good, i thought the Hammer or Heliofungia would be unhappy first.Usually star polyps are extremenly hardy. So - perhaps give it a bit of time. Monitor the situation.
No purigen.Hi Warr - that's cool! 300mm to 400mm is 100% perfect!
Well - perhaps it's some toxins in the water that might be irritating it. Are you running activated carbon?
I have no idea either:Leather corals, and star polyps would be affected differently by different toxins. Leather corals can excrete toxins that affects star polyps, but not LPS - I don't know the exact dynamics of toxins, but I do know that it could be specific to a type of "competitor"....
I am not sure if purigen would remove toxins - does it say so on the bottle? I know about ammonia/nitrates, but not sure about toxins...
I haven't it only been running for a month.Best guy to chat to about Purigen is ObiWan.
However I would always run carbon as well. Warr when is the last time you recharged the Purigen?
I have no PO4 detected on my tests, but it may still be in the system, it is being consumed by cyano or algae and keeping the levels low.i use phosban - seems to work - still no detectable PO4 - put it into the tank in Jan - have not changed it yet
