I would say then you have found you answer. If I where you, (which i am not), I would get that coral away from the sand sifting goby. I have seen sand sifting gobies, and jaw fish kill many LPS by spreading sand on them and bothing them to the point where they dont come out and then starve to death.

When I got my first sun coral it opened at night for one week then decided not to open for while. Well it did respond to food by elongating but the polyps never opened. Couple of weeks later it released little buds that made new baby sun coral. Oh and my jaw fish got eaten by one of my acans that was on the sand. I guess it was tired of it being sanded. Same acan ate one of my snails too. Killer acan I guess.

I'll be moving my suncoral from the sandbed ASAP. My Goby doesn't put sand on my suncorals, but he does to the plate coral. It just moves it right off and chills.

Are many people in this post not native speakers of English? You guys are confusing me.
"After that once of twice a week shouldd be fine" you mean once or twice a week?(sounds like a small number to me) "I have four for several months" have had? You mean you tried them and they died with in several months, or that you still have them. I figured my sun wouldn't open for a couple of days in my tank, but one polyp started opening up while I was acclimating it in a bucket and the rest opened after 5 minutes in my tank. I would think this is a good sign and perhaps it just smelled a lot of food in my water? I do have gorgonians and feed pretty often. Is it possible at all that they would open when they are super hungry or not liking the water or could this only be a good sign? |

I think you're probably fine.
