Fox coral

are they supposed to look like this? Maybe I put mine in backwards or something. Is that possible?

Re: Fox coral

It looks like it's not fully opened yet. They should be somewhat flat, like an open flower.

Re: Fox coral

It doesn't look quite expanded.
All in all,it looks healthy.Give them more time to adjust.

Re: Fox coral

I was figuring on the whole backwards idea making someone laugh. Glad I could make someone smile!

I will give it more time. if not, I will turn it over and around and see if that helps

Re: Fox coral

i am disagreeing that that is a fox coral. fox coral has flat polyps they don't bubble up. but i might be wrong, maybe because i haven'e seen one the is bubbled up or at least my fox doesn't, it just shrink up but it doesn't bubble. JME
