All,

Last weekend I happened by WWC. I bought a GakGak Goniopora which is doing well but I couldn't resist a couple of the $5 corals.

This is where my question comes. This morning when the lights came on I noticed one of the coral frags ( 1st and 2nd picture ) have extended some clear tentacles ( don't know what else to call them ). Are these just normal "arms"? Does that mean it's settling in and comfortable?

Tank is a 29gallong Red Sea 130D - AIO... All parameters are good and Goni and Condi and others are doing well and eating...

Thanks!!!

They are feeding tentacles most likely, a couple may be what I call sweepers and sting other corals around it. But from the picture they just looked like feeder tentacles...it’s happy
 
Yup. Feeding tentacles. It's hungry, give it some food. :)

I'm jealous of your ratio of coralline growth to ugly algae growth BTW.
 
+1 on feeders.
