I’ve had this Candy Cane for about two months, and it still looks the way it did when I brought it home. I’ve tried several different locations, including next to the ones I have that are doing well. I still appears to have life in it, but I’m at a loss as to why it still looks the way it does.

It may just be an unhealthy specimen.

Could be getting too much light. The other candy canes seem to like their spot.
Possibly, but it was right next to the others for a while with no change. I figured I’d move it and see what happens in a couple of weeks.
Have you tried target feeding.
I have. No change.

I think I may have just got a dud, but I’ll leave it until I know it’s dead. I’ve never had an LPS take more than a couple of days to open up, but I’ve had zoas take months.
