If there's any algae growing on it the coral will remain closed. Try a turkey baster and increase flow. Perhaps power heads and wave makers need cleaning? Double check salinity.

Hey. I did the turkey baster and flow is good. I did brush with soft toothbrush on 5/9. Still hasn’t opened. I only saw like 3/4 come out. Should i consider a peroxide/water dip?
