Why is my capnella so sad?


I've had this capnella for 6 months, have watched it grow and grow. A couple of days ago it stopped opening up. Could it by dying or just in a bad mood? Everyone else is happy and my parameters are all perfect. The only thing I changed recently was the flow- just a slight adjustment that no one else seems effected by. Could this be the cause?

Certain pieces of my capnella bush will do that from time to time. As Kelli said, just keep an eye on it...one morning it will just bloom again

Thank you. Do you think I should readjust the flow again, or just let it be. How long would you give it before you started getting concerned?

It's probably about to drop a baby.
