sun corals losing color ?

[allan]

I thought mine had grown legs, then I realized my emerald crab was doing his routine work out bench pressing unglued corals

They do love their work outs.

I don't even know why I keep my sun coral. Mine only open at night or when I put too much food in the tank they will start to unfurl. During the day they are little more than pink bumps on a rock, but at night they open up and I feed about three times a week. Turn off the pumps, and gently drop little bits of goodness right into their hungly little tentacles.

We built a little cave and put the sun coral under there. We've also been spot feeding. However, the sun coral hasn't opened up and the skin is still without color. I'm guessing it will take a while to heal but the polys look healthy from what I can tell because they're still bright orage but like I said they haven't come out yet. Unless it's when we're sleeping. Hopefully it will make a speedy recovery!
