More interested in the type of coral than a 'name' and its care requirements?

agree like to see it open,watch edges for recession ,or new growth ,will tell you if happy
 
I have not -- its got bright orange... tips? polyps? things? idk... the tips of the tubes are bright orange so I will update in a day or two if/when it opens

I bet it’s a stylocoeniella....... Very underrated corals in my opinion. I have a green one that looks sparkly when it’s fully open. They do like to feel a bit of flow so if it doesn’t open soon you might want to try moving it.

its in a decent flow area so I will give it a few days and keep an eye on it. What should it look like open?
