Thanks it looked great friday until today just wondering why it curled all of a sudden. Its been doing fine. Nothing has changed so i dont know? Is it looking bad or not?Looks like a great piece! Judging by the curled tips it is a wall hammer which I think are fantastic but keep an eye on it as it is one big head versus the branching type which have several heads. As long as the flow is gentle, some nutrients are in the tank, and you acclimate it to the lights you have from the tank you got it in it should recover pretty quickly. Hammers are resilient
Cheers just worried as it was fully extended the previous 3 days so no idea why like this today. Ill see how it is tomorrow. I did not dip no but got a few cool barnacles on the rock it came on.I wouldn't worry just yet, it is still in the adjustment phase. It is really promising that it is extending! If it starts to look deflated during the day, or completely recedes into the skeleton during your photoperiod (lights on) then I would come back with an update and some pictures. The angle of the two original photos is slightly different, but no visible signs of concern yet. Did you do a dip prior to placing it in the tank? That is more so to prevent bringing in new critters, but can sometimes help the transition.
