ok i've had this single polyp for almost 6 months with no growth moved all over the tank the current spot in photo has been its home for the last 2 weeks this spot has its best extension when open and seems to like it. i dropped it while moving my rocks the other day and it hit polyp down while open straight into the sandbed. i have dipped it with coral rx only once when i first noticed it it hasn't gotten any bigger the black spot that is. lol nor the polyp. not sure on what if anything i can do so any ideas or help in identifying would be much appreciated thank you guys. it is a frag that i received from a friend that i believe had to have it shipped from bali and picked up at customs in atlanta,ga with that i'm guessing it was wild caught but not sure to be honest. let me know if i need to add anything else to help figure this out thanks again everyone
