How long have you had them in the tank? They may just be adjusting to the new lights and placement

Not long. They are brand new. I just freaked because they were ok one minute then 10 minutes later they were like that

Did you see this from the other post?
NOT a fan of what I received from Aquarium Depot.

Well, as long as those RedPeople eaters open they should be ok, BUT as I have found...
TRUE Red People Eaters have a black star burst around the center neon eye and lines from the center and black in the polyp fingers.

The RadioActive Dragon Eye also looks a little less AWESOME than every other colony I have seen.

you said they are new to your tank. Did you lower your lights and ramp them up over a couple of days? Do you have any shrimp or crabs? I know my poylps would close up when my shrimp walk on them.

Mine did get better after about a few days. The others no so much. Fire and Ice, fruit drops, Eye of Rah withered away!
The fake Red People Eaters have hung in there. The super tiny yellow funnyfaces have hung in there and Radioactive Dragonseye have done the same. Hanging in there...

Yes i did lower the lights...drip acclimate them. My husband picked up some really nice big rocks loaded with them...they are all fine now. But why is there a slime coating on the others. It looks like a bubble almost
