Help with coral, and weird "growth"

[terrell wohlrab]

This may not be the best picture in the world for this. But it's the best I could get! This coral was given to me by the fish store and I'm not sure what it is, I also noticed these white things on it last Night. And also this morning so I'm wondering if it's possibly dead coral? Or something I should be alarmed about?

It looks like a Torch coral, but I'm not really sure what those white things are though.

Wouldn't say dead. Maybe certain tentacles are bleached, but not sure why one would and the others wouldn't.

Do they wave in the current with the rest?

Yes some can bleach.
I have a rainbowctorch that just one head bleached for no reason.
Just gave a cocktail a day and it was all happy and colorful after a week or two.
What cocktails can even do to corals
Yes it makes me as well happy and colorful :rolleyes:
