leather coral

[rtspeed]

I just recentlly got a leather and it is all slumped over, it seems to still have all it color but it looks sick.
Is this normal for these or is it dying, it ha been in the tank for 2 days now?

Well if it was dying it would be bleaching (turning white) IMO I think its just getting used to the tank and its stressed

Leave it alone and see if it pulls through. When leathers are stressed they usually turn white. If they are dying, they will shrivel up to nothing and wither away.

leathers can close up tight when they get disturb and can take a few days to come out if it starts turning black or any thing that looks like its melting is a bad sign though.

Leathers have a tendency to fall over once in a while, mine usually do it whenever I move them around or mess in the tank too much, give it a couple days and it should perk right up.
