All duncans are the same. There's no such thing as "wall" duncans and "branching" duncans, I think that is what Joe was trying to get at.

Yours seem a little retracted (no need to worry they are new to your system)

FYI while Duncan feed on zooxanthellae they definitely like fleshy marine food and they will grow rapidly with supplemental feeding

+1. My duncans were just two polyps when I got them. Now, they are over 10. I stopped counting. I do feed them a little frozen once a week.

I guess my duncans are weird. I have them in full light and in moderate-high flow. shrug.gif

 

Jeremy, is it possible that something is picking on them?

Nope nothing is picking on them and lol they must love where they are because It is growing another head and now they are open again. I guess when they are growing a new head they all close up for a little bit.
