Are my corals ok??????or do they need help?? please look at pics
Hello all............I have two corals that I'm not sure if they're fine or not (I have a total of about 15 corals in my tank). My parameters are on target and I'm running 250 MH's (10000k) for 8 hrs a day & t5's for 12 hours. I'm gonna describe my concern and show pics of each coral.
The first one is a Devil Hand leather. I have it about 2/3 of the way up my tank. It looks healthy but its changing form a vivid tan to a purplish color. Is this normal?? Here are a few shots:

Now Pic
The second is a finger leather. I have it located in the bottom (1/3) section of my tank right near a candy cane coral. This leather used to open up with little points sticking out of it everywhere and it as almost double the size.
heres a shot of the finger and the Candy cane together.
Are they too close together?? Shoud the finger coral be higher up in the tank?? it was just fine for a few weeks and then it just closed up.
All my other corals seem to be thriving..........Are you supposed to spot feed leathers??? I currently spot feed them about 2 times a week. And flow?? heavy or light on leathers??
Thanks
