    Thanks! It was sold as a a bluetip staghorn. Very generous piece for $20 dollars too. It's about 5".

    I moved the birsdnest to a more upright position (Was at about 120*). It looks a little more natural that way and you can see more of the coral now.

    Haven't seen the polyps yet. Cause for concern?

    It looks like a few have attempted to show itself.

    Edit: I just looked and the very tip has its extended and there appears to be some others partially extended. Has decent color. Blue tips (imagine that).

    Thanks!

    Still seems to be acclimating to my tank. Once it does, I imagine it will build its base and then take off from that base, right?
