I have a pink hammer that's been in my tank for about 6 months and it has never fully opened. It looked great at the store when I bought it but once I dropped it in my tank it just never came out fully. I turned off all power heads thinking it didn't like the flow, moved it to various spots, but still nothing. All the other lps, softies, and leathers are doing great in my tank so I'm a little comfused. This is the most it ever opens. Any tips? Thanks in advance

I had a huge orange wall hammer that died all of a sudden 2 days ago and my orange torch has one head that I can't tell if it is still alive or not, but the other head on that one tries to come out some. About an inch or so every day. I have lost a branching hammer, my pink wall hammer, my huge orange wall hammer, possibly losing my orange torch, and I lost my branching frogspawn in the last 4 days. I have no clue as to what is going on. My green torch also went from about 7 to 8 inch polyps to puffing up like that other persons frogspawn. It did that about 2 months ago for no apparent reason. All I have left is one head on my branching hammer and about 4 or 5 toxic splatter hammers that I am praying that I don't lose those, too.

Man, sorry for all the losses. With Euphyllias, I'd start with checking the Alk. regularly. They really don't fair well when it swings up and down. I would look into all parameters as well and keep your eyes out for brown jelly around the base of the tissue.
