    Thought I would update. So after having this guy in the shade he only fully extended once (looked like he crawled up the wall) but actually tripled in size. Did not open fully again for two days. the cave in medium flow.
    So I moved it again to a fast flow area on some base rock on the bottom of the tank. 100% loves it there everyday triples in size and extends branches - I will post a photo tomorrow and hope maybe can nail down this type of coral.
    I have to say it's not a chili coral - I just got one On Sat and looks nothing like this guy. The chili coral I just got is Red and extends white polyps at night - and have to feed every other day or so.
    But the little guy is doing great and seems happy - I did squirt a little phyto over it yesterday and it did respond.
