Hi all,

I have been keeping freshwater tanks but decided to convert one (10g) over to salt last month, I'm loving it so far.
That being said I'm still very new to this and was wondering if anyone would be able to help me identify this frag I picked up today? Additionally, how long should I expect it to take to open (or is this a water issue)? Any advice at all would be greatly appreciated, just really want to keep my first coral alive (: Thank you so much for your time & help!

Reminds me of Clavularia closed up. That’s what my Firework Clove polyps look like when they’re closed up. Or pretty close to it . Not positive though. It will be a surprise!!!! Lol!!

Reminds me of Zoas too. It’s hard to tell how long the stalks are. When my Zoas close up they're like little nubs. Cloves vs Zoas.
