Funny thing, your comments on the green brain not opening Mike!
I have one as well. When I had it in my 90 gallon display it wouldn't open at all. Didn't matter where I put it in the tank (up, down, high light, low light area, high flow, low flow, totally sheltered). After months of dicking about with it I decided one day to move it to my Bio-Cube which I affectionately refer to as "the toilet" due to ongoing nitrate issues. You wouldn't believe the change Within a day it opened totally and became nothing short of impressive. Having a hard time believing that this brain could transform so radically in the Cubes crappy water condition and being somewhat curious I moved the brain back to the 90 after a week and it closed up tighter than a frogs butt and stayed that way until I moved it back to the cube a month later. I also have a pink brain (posted above) in my 90 that stays open and looks decent. Again curious I moved the Pink to the Cube. It closed tight and stayed that way for a month. Moved it back to the 90 and BINGO, opened to its former state the next day. During my mini experiment I did not alter water parameters in either tank. The only differences between the two were the lighting (PC on the cube, T5 on the 90) and nitrates (~20 in the cube, undetectable in the 90).
Strange eh?

i think it also has to do with flow.. there is alot in my 90 and it was mild in my old tank.. but my sps need flow so it will have to live with it.

Hope you enjoy
Keith
