How long have you had them? They usually open within a week. No worries yet.

If a few of them are opening then I wouldnt worry about the others so much, just give it time.

Psh, only a few hours? It's going to take atleast a day.

30 minutes to a few days, neither is rare.

Yup, some open right up, and others are stubborn. Just make sure you check for nudibranch's or sundail snails to make sure those pests aren't bothering them
