Is this what candy cane should look like?

[ahappel]

Hey guys,
I received this frag from a local reefer. Is this was a resting candy cane coral should look like?

At night its tentacles come out, and if i put food directly on a polyp it will engulf it but never really looks much different than this.

It has been in my tank for 3-weeks now. I'm about to go get a water test done so I can give those parameters but last test was:

Nitrogen compounds: 0
Phosphates: Trace
Calcium: 420
Ph: 7.9
Salinity: 1.026
Temp 77
Kh: 11
4-24Watt T5 Bulbs 2-10K 2-actinic
20 gallon tank, two HOB filters acting as powerheads + protein skimmer
Tanks been up for over 5-years but I have had about 2-months.

Looks normal

Looks happy enough---could be a little more poofy.

I agree with "could be more poofy" because I have two sets up trumpets. One is out like yours and looks very similar. The other is tucked into a crevice in the rocks in a shaded area and that group has grown way more heads and each head is fuller.

On a side note I really like the look of your tank with the macros up front and rock in the back.

It looks pretty healthy. I have a friend who's candy canes took awhile to start fully inflating, I think around a month.
