Hey guys,

This is one of my first soft corals. When I first put it in the tank it did have its polyp things out. But after the first 10 min or so, no polyps have come out and it's bent over. It's been in the tank for maybe 5-7 days. I moved it once with no improvement. In the picture it's on its side bc it's bent at a 90 degree angle for some reason (came like that). Will it expand/straighten up over time? Is it sick? Thank you.

My toadstool does the same thing, and it has been doing it for about 4 months so far. Occasionally it opens.
 
Still closed . But seemingly not dead as it hasn't crashed the tank
