Frogspawn not extending

[anthony1238]

My new frogspawn frag is not extening as much as it did even after the first day i put it in. Basicly the second day i put it in it extended but after a week it has only extended about half the size. I have a 75 gallon with t5h0 lights, 2 K3 powerheads and a mag 7 return pump. all paremters are where they should be, although I think my Calcium is a lil high at 440.

Calcium is fine.
9 times out of 10 it's because of too much flow. Try turning off your powerheads for a couple of hours. If it expands, just move it to a lower-flow area.

thanks i'll try that. My GPS rock isn't opening either and that always did. the K3s are new so maybe to much flow for them right now.

this is the exact same thing that happened to my hammer and they are similar. Like they said I moved him to a lower flowin spot and he loved it and was fully extended in a couple hours.
