Thank you for looking

I have a hammerhead coral that looks a bit diffrent to what I have seen online.

First it does not seem to extent upwards very well but the heads seem to sink downwards.

There is also two odd growths on it with two tiny hair like tenticles out of the end.

Please see in photo of top and right hand side.

Any help would be appreciated

Thank you again

In my experience for a lot of corals that is newly introduced they do better to acclimate in low flow low light.

Thank you for your reply

What do you think those hard tube growths are on the coral?

Thank you
 
Looks like a type of snail or featherduster, harmless.

They just seem to be getting bigger and I was a little worried but if they are harmless I shall leave them alone :)
