    HELP! Flowerpot not opening?

    Update... so I went away for the weekend and when I got back it was still closed so I thought it was probably dead. However what I have noticed is that on a morning (under moonlights) the coral is partially open but when I get home from work it's closed. Is it possible that it's struggling...

    HELP! Flowerpot not opening?

    Thanks for the advice. I went to my local fish shop and they asked me if I was feeding it and I haven't been. They sold me sold special food specific for this type of coral and recommended putting the top part of a coke bottle over the coral (without touching it) and using a turkey baster to...

    Arcadia LED T5 in RSM C250

    Thanks for the link. My tank temp is around 26-28c in winter and 27-30c in summer. I think the issue I have is less the high temperature but the swings, the difference between the start of the day and evening is around 2c and that's caused by the lights.
