Good concern for sure, I have a tubastrea that I had to pull out of the DT and put into a small tupperware container of tank water and let mysis sit on it every other day until it opened a little and fed. After about a week and a half of that, it finally started feeding normally (meaning it started putting it's feeders out when it was hungry instead of when I dumped food on it). Now it opens up when I feed the fish and stays open for a few hours. Later in the evening I squirt it a little food directly on it couple times per week. They need help getting into a tank pattern of feeding, but if you keep at it I think it will be fine. they are very cool in the tank and I love that you don't need light on them so placement can be under an overhang or something.

I am getting them from Indonesia and Australia. I buy them from wholesalers. Historically, they don't do well. I just don't know why.

really there's no trick to him although I only had them for less than 24 hours I think with good water quality good flow and stable alkalinity and calcium then they should do just fine

That is also one of my favorites and I'm hoping that on the next shipment I will get a different color variation
