Put three Ric's in the tank recently. Two have grown and done extremely well. This one is changing in my opinion for the worse.
Any suggestions.
All levels in the tank or normal only trates running around 10.

It was near a Goniopora which has since been removeed from the tank. I also move the RIC to a new location.
Hope you are right.

I have two rics that shrivel up on occasion. One of them actually throws itself into a little ball. They always come back full in a few hours.

Reef Don't feel bad S*&T happens.
Yes I think the Goniopora may have touched.
This morning I think it may be looking a little better.
No, I don't have peppermint shrimps, but I do have camel backs and Monkey shrimp.
It seems like it is shrivling in two spots, but is seems to be feeding fine.
The other two in the tank are doing beautifully along with the other mushrooms.
I am hoping the relo will make the difference.
Thanks
