What coral ?
Pics under white lighting ?

 

[mcgullen]

Somehow pic didn't show the first time. My lfs gives me dying things for free. Wonder what this is.

Pagoda cup coral?

Goniopora, it's just closed up right now. These can sometimes be a bit finicky, but for the most part they are pretty resilient. It should open up really big in a few days!

if it has 12 tentacles, then it's an alveopora. If it has 24 tentacles, then it's a goniopora.

Thanks! It is apparently dying in the shop. Will wait for it to open up to count tentacles. :)

I counted 12. So this is Alveopora :)

This is as much as it "extends" at the moment. Aka not extending at all, just barely peeking out. Is this normal or should I think about adjusting water parameters?
