Did a water change???

loveatfirstreef · 04/03/2006, 08:32 PM

Just did a water change, tank's been up about a month & a half. My yellow polyp coral was doing awesome until I did a water change, now it's looking scraggly. Is it just stressed out from the change? The temp is the same and the sg is the same, only diff is it's clean water!!

Should I be worried?

I have a 29g, have 2 fire shrimp, snails, hermits, 2 clowns and a yellow polyp with LR. Just added the clowns and yellow polyp last weds. And the others have been in for about 2-3 weeks.

Most corals will close up after being blown around or touched, especially during a water change. Just give them awhile to adjust and reopen.
