Leather-Is it going to open more?

This is picture from about a week and a half ago:

Much better, but isnt it supposed to "open more"?

Looks like it will open up. The polyps are not yet fully extended. A very nice piece. Is that a Tonga or Fiji?

 

[TracyZeuner]

I believe it is Fiji

Well, if it has come that far then it will probably fully open. Nice frag.

Thanks. The reason I bought it was to "save" it from the LFS. They had it under pc lights and it looked like it did in the first picture.I just moved it up to the top 1/3 of my tank 3 days ago and it is starting to open up-all the way I hope in a few more days

Fiji's like a lot of light. Looks like you got that one covered. A very nice leather. Hope it opens all the way and looks super for you.

io have 2 large ones in my tank and they can be pretty touchy. I have found if they make it the first few weeks you will be alright. If I adjust the flow or a hermitt decides to rest on it the coral won't fully extend for a few days. Definitly Gorgeous corals and extrememly colorful!
