doesn't mean u feed them regularly they will grow

healthy....water quality also play a part...do check

water regularly.....

if they change to white i believe that is their skeleton.

mine is growing slowly and healthy.

i think your suncoral still in state of shock..

let it settle down first...and do feeding during

nite...once it started feeding.....change feeding

time to day time.....
