    I bought a bubble coral recentley. I am away at college and the tank is at home. my parents say that for the first few days it was fully out and happy now it is shrunk up. All the paramaters are good so i think that it is a placement problem. I have PC lighting. the specifics are in my sig. its 1/3 of the way up from the bottom with inderect flow on it. Any suggestions?

    I would try to place it on the sand.They don't like a lot of flow even if it is indirect.Remember they are heavy bodied and don't like to rub a up against things like rocks.Hope this helps.
