  1. Help, I think my sun coral is dying?

    On my sun coral they will on occasion have their mouths open so I wouldn't worry too much about that. The other thing I don't have a clue on. See if it will feed tonight of tommorrow. It might just me a bit ticked off from the face plant in the sand. How long have you had the coral?
