I got a frammer coral a while ago, but it’s receded over the last month, and now it’s never open…I have noticed when I dipped other corals, there was some kind of worms up in them. Should I try dipping the coral in iodine?

it seems like it is in a very high flow spot, it is trying to extend(as shown by the small tentacle thingies coming out) but not being able to because the flow is restricting the movement, place it in a low-no flow spot and see how it does!

Ok! Sounds good, I’ll move it to a lower flow spot. How long do you think it’ll take before it looks better?

I reckon, today-tomorrow hopefully
maybe a couple of days, im familiar with hammers, and froggies, but this is a mix, so im just guessing right now :D
but normally, thats the best
and where did the white string thing come out of? mouth? was it clear like slime? was it a white white, curly?

I don’t think the flow is too harsh for that spot looking at the other corals around it, what are your parameters?

I moved it yesterday, and it still looks very unhappy today…im seriously considering dipping it in iodine. Anyone have any ideas on what can help the coral?
