Hey guys, first post, first tank and first problem lol I got an innovative marine 15G. It’s about two months old got a lot of cool stuff in there. Royal gramma, Canary blenny, two designer clowns, torch, hammers aaaaaaand the problem child. The Duncan. He has been closed for a day and a half now, all my other corals and fish are doing great, happy and fully extended. Anyone have any thoughts as to why? Thanks!!!

Sometimes they close for a couple of days, maybe 4-5 days and they re-open again. This happened to me several times and the first couple of times a freakout and then I understood it was normal. If it stays closed for more than 5 days then you need to check your parameters. Duncans are the first to notice a shift in parameters.

Agree with this. Sometimes my duncans randomly close and open up again after a few days.

If they remain closed or look worse then I'd def check your params
