i have had a candy cane coral in my 2g pico for a couple weeks and it seems that most of the heads still are closed up/withered exept for one thats back behind the rest, ive turned down the flow and my water seems fine but my yellow clown goby keeps sitting on the coral and i was wondering if thats why its acting this way? and if it is the goby dos anyone know how i can get him out without ripping apart the rocks?

thanks!

We have 2 yellow clowns & they will both rest on candy canes as well as the other corals. Just what they do I guess. It dosn,t seem to bother the CC or anything else (other than the Clam) Have you got enough light? If they arnt eating you might try Reefroids.

I think candy canes can handle larger sized foods. Might want to try mysis at night when they have their feeders out.

Check your water parameters and let us know. any other inhabitants?

Your right Xtasia they can handle larger food but the reefroids sure get things excited.
