Favia question....

[BAPrince]

I just got my first two corals about two weeks ago. When I got this favia, his tentacles weren't out at all (first picture). Over the last few days, his tentacles have been more and more open (second picture). Please help a newbie out... is this normal? Good? Bad?

Just for fun, also a picture of my Zoa, which I think it looking pretty darn good!

And, if you know.... can you ID the favia?

Feeder tentacles. Good sign! Nice looking coral. Looks hungry.

This is a fish-less coral QT tank. I did buy some Reef-Roids, which I target fed once. Any recommendations on how often to feed?

Yep, you are lucky yours does this during the day. Mine only does it at night.

Once or twice a week is what I try to do.
