I put the frogspawn into my QT until my reef is setup. ammonia=0, rates and trites= 0, alk=180, hardness 120, ph 8.0~8.2...salinty= 1.023~4..all the other corals are just fine, my frogspawn when i put it in, opened up half way, then went back in, its been hiding for like 2 hours...i was watching it for 20-25 mins, and it opened up half way again....and then went back in...another 15-20 mins later did the same thing...what is wrong?

try raising the salinity a little bit to like .025-.026. and it might not like the stronger light. depending on where you have it try lowering it in the tank.

First off just relax...it may take a few days before it opens....If you have more light, I would lower it a lil bit in the tank...but just let it be...as long as your water is good, its not gonna just die....the more you mess with it the worse its gonna be.
