I got these corals tuesday and they have not opened yet and I am concerned. I have been having a problem with my existing Bubble and Red Brain not opening and slowly shrinking which I posted on and was advised that my lighting might be worn out causing spectrum change. I got 2 new 400 watt Ushio MH's and 2 super actinics today but so far no change. Look at the pics and tell me if they are going to be OK. Do I need to give them more time or what? All parameters are fine and have been doing 10% water changes.:nervous:

What lighting were the corals under at where you got them from? They might need to be acclimated to higher lighting. Also, you shouldn't replace all the bulbs so suddenly. Just replace one every other week so the corals don't get shocked so much.
