Can anyone give a positive ID on this?

is it supposed to open? It looks like this since I got it 3 weeks ago.
All my other corals open fully during daylight and close up at night. This one looks the same all the time.

thanks

That is for certain Galaxea. Very pretty but it is also very aggressive, keep it at least 5" away from any other corals you don't want fried. Other than that, care wise it's like a colonial torch coral.
 
The pictures I’ve seen of galaxia mostly seem to have small but waving arms mine never looks any different than what you see. I have others that open up nicely in the same tank.

I have the galaxia on the bottom away from others I have a 65 gallon tall with two prime HD reef lights. All water parameters are within normal across the board

Mia this maybe one that doesn’t open? Or should I maybe try to move it around the tank??

thanks.
