provide good lighting. more importantly

feed them - they are filter feeders - use golden pearls.

[slcw]

perhaps the coco is blocked by LR or other corals.

just crashing ideas for possible cause.

bro... perhaps ur coco worm has drop its crown... so it takes time to recover.. other case is... ur coco worm is adapted to opening its crown in the shell... for example my coco worm change its crown.. and for like 2 months liao... the crown remain small and it didn't grow.... and it only expose its crown near the hole.. later i post u pic..

[barnacle]

oh okie thanx bro.. no it haven drop.. i try placing it upside down.. the crown did not drop.. bro SLCW.. my coco worm not block by my Lr.. after i rescape my tank i put it under the Mh.. it not opening too

MY MISTAKE! I apolgise, my further investigates lead me to the fact coco worms do not need strong lights! I have mislead u. sorry.

They are however, filter feeders and that is important.

[LoReNsIa]

oh.. okie.. wad is a filter feeder?? and everytime ppl write IMO.. wad is tt?? thanx for everyone kindness..

[LoReNsIa]

oh thanx thanx bro decent.. hmmm.. ya i noe tt coco worm feed on plankton.. but it not eating leh.. and it hide it self in it shell for month liaox,, not coming out either,,

[chewlaoheng]

not coming out got 2 possibilities. Either the felle is already up the lorry or it's crown has dropped and growing new small ones ready to show you

but for many months...likely former...

if it's still alive and you want to see it, make sure you calcium level is very the good... don't worry about food

[prec]

try dosing a little more phyto to lure it out? or u can place it in a mid-current area..

mine was placed in a mid to high current area and it came out 10mins later after putting it into my tank..

[LoReNsIa]

oh.. isit.. think u get the good one.. i juz nowgo see it.. the crown is still tt nice.. but it come nearerto the outside.. but still not coming out.. haiz.. hoping tt it will be fine..

[slcw]

my coco recovered after feeding golden pearls

[clowntang]

I noticed everytime I rescape my live rocks or moved the coco worm. It takes approximately 2 weeks for them come out and show their face.

So I suggest you wait for another 2 weeks before making any decision.

when a coco worm dies , its whole body will be out of the shell... so dun worry! urs aint dead~!
