SRC Member borinz Posted March 5, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted March 5, 2005 bro shoelevy if lets say have to shift it then have to be a low current n low light area first. let it recover then bring it out again. IMO they dun really need strong flow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly speaking .... i always move my lobo here and there and they seem ok to me....i think is your coral stress during the transportation. Maybe you give it sometime and see how it goes.
