looks normal for a gonio that juz went into the tank...mine didnt show a single tentacle for the 1st day...put on the substrate where it still has direct light --not shaded...it needs feedings of plankton like 2 times a week...thats all i do and all 5 frags of my gonio now happily stretching and waving in the current after 8 months..pretty little corals...

      Thanks for all the queries and it is overwhelming. I decided to close this thread for now to better structure how the decomm is going to take place progressively. Sorry that I may not be able to response to all and hope to seek your understanding that this will have to be carry out in stages to minimize disruption to the livestock.
