Yeah as said in the title of this thread, my gorgonian wont open up. And its been like this for about a week or more. Im feeding everything regularly and i put in all the supplements (calcium, iodine (every couple weeks), strontium and molybdenum, zooplex, chromaplex, basic stuff) So i've been debating this for days now. Its in a 12 gallon with plenty of live rock, the filter is good. All the nitrate, nitrite, pH, and ammonia levels are good. The lighting is only OK its a 50/50 compact fluorescent (i need to upgrade). But despite the light (which i think would be sufficient for this gorgonian) what can possibly be wrong. Is it the water temperature? Do gorgonians need a specific water temp? I've rambled enough so i'll leave it up for discussion. Thnx so much

peace
