Hello,

I got this last week, from a guy who was quitting this hobby.
In his reef it was nice and "yellow/green", but now its starting
to get grey. All my other corals are doing fine.
Its also comming some slime from it....
Should I just pull it out and trash or give it more time ?
Thanks

It looks ok to me. Mine was the same when I first got it and once in awhile it shrank for a day or two but healthy and growing fast. Give it more time.
Good luck
 
Just for info instead of pasting the url to your photos to the thread, you can cut and paste the tag (the very bottom box under the pic on the photo bucket websight). If you do this the pic will show up in your post and not the URL. Not a very big deal ecept for those of use that can acess photo bucket from work. Thanks
 
Ok, thanks. You dont know the id also ? :)

shuturhole316tx : Yeah will do that next time. Dident notice it.
 
It doesn't look like a lost cause yet.

Give it some time and good strong flow to keep the slime cleaned off and it should come around.
 
looks like a contracted (but otherwise perfectly healthy) Sinularia flexibilis (spaghetti leather) to me. Make sure it's in good strong light and moderate flow and it will adjust. It looks like quite a monster so give it plenty of space. If you click on my photos icon you can see mine.
