toadstool

[mfishy]

i brought my toadstool coral saturday and i was told that i might have to give it a couple of day till it opens up. the coral is about 5in till so a nice size. the arms i will call them are about half a cm out but where i got it to i was about to in out. is it ok? waters ok the only thing is that the nitrate is just under 25. is there any more things it may not like?

if your ammonia, nitrite, alk, cal, mag, are all good you will be fine. i found out leathers seem to do better with a little nitrate well at least in my tank they do. what kind of lighting do you have? pc?

alk what is that? my mag i dont no about but all outhers are good. my light is 2 blue and 2 white they all r t8

alk = alklinity also try to put it more toward the top of the tank to get more light as you i am guessing are just running normal output bulbs. then just give it a few days to settle in it's new spot
