Hi

Anybody encounter a hammer coral having its tentacles...or should I say the hammer head, sticking out to as long as 4 to 5 inches long....Seem like fishing something..

It has previous attached the hammer head to a mushroom causing it to melt away!!! :(

Is there anything I should do? I have relocate my mushroom and buttons away from it....the nearest to it now is a jewel....sign! Its already just a 2 ft tank and now I have to create ample space for this hammer coral!!!

:(<_<

I have a rotating power head now and it pointing toward the hammer but ......

Silver2578, does you hammer re-tract itself when you blow your water direction at it? How is it now? Still extending the tentacles to such length?

Now I am really confused??!!! :huh:

"water current is strong, the sweeping tentacles will be extended"

"too fast the tentacles will retract itself..."

"try changing the waterflow (direction/flow rate) ard the hammer."

I probably have to conclude to have it at a low waterflow area??? Right??? :unsure:
