Candy Cane dead?

[FrickMasterFlex]

Not sure if something is wrong with my coral or not. Have had it for over a month, all the other corals seem to be thriving, and this one just seems a little blah. Not sure why! All tank readings are within proper ranges. Light I am using is a super budget light, but as I said, all other corals are thriving. TIA!

check it in the morning before the lights go on with a flashlight.
mine send out their feeding tentacles at night.

I've noticed that the feeding tentacles go out at night too! So maybe it's in good shape after all. Guess I'm just not sure on timing to notice growth in a coral like this. Any idea how long before seeing any significant growth?

different for everyone . tank parameters and all. growth will be heads splitting in to new ones.

In my experience they grow quite quickly, but as is often the case(at least in my systems) it may take several months of limited slow growth before taking off.
