I got a frogspawn and like a dummie i threw him in without checking parameters my salinity was way off and he went into shock oozing white stuff that was about 3 days ago. I immediatly lowered the salinity and he started coming around just barely putting out his little arms(?). But he was in kind of a high current area and wouldn't come out all the way, the coral booked saidthey could be in a stronger current, so i lowered him and put him in less current, its been 5 days and he hasnt opened all the way but hes trying. Do you think hes toast? Is putting him in less current going to allow him to come out easier? Any suggestions? I also target feed shrimp and he seemed to take it.....should i keep doing this?
Frogspawn?

How big is your specimen, jammerz?
I thought about frogspawn for my nano, and then I read up on it. I believe they extend stingers up to six inches... and that's a lot of real estate in a ten gallon.
Is there a special way to place stinging-out corals in a larger tank? Do you guys just keep a foot of space away from everything else?

yah i just try to keep stuff away from each other if i know there will be bio-warfare. generally, euphyllia will kill other stonys in the vicinity but leave a lot of softies alone...softies, however, can cause problem for euphyllia and other sps. its a balancing act. as far as frogspawn in a nano it is actually one of the LPS that doesnt generally extend long sweeper tentacles (unlike bubble coral for example) so you might be ok with a small specimen...if it grow to many heads you can always seperate a couple
