Default Frogspawn condition?

I've had my frogspawn frag now for about a month and I don't think it has ever really opened up like it was at the LFS...but maybe I'm just a little paranoid. Opinions on how it looks?




I got a torch coral and daisy polyps same time and they seem to be doing great in the same tank and with about same amount of flow (low to moderate). I'm wondering if I should consider moving the Frogspawn...


Thanks
PatD

It looks fine to me. Perhaps it was under less light or less flow at the LFS? That could cause it to inflate more. How does the skeleton look? If there is lots of new white growth that is a great indicator that it is doing well and is happy where its at.

Heres a pic of mine open and looking normal followed by a pic of it closed up at night to show the new growth.

They also like to split often. I guess branch would be a better term. The mouth splits and everything shrinks in a line. It'll even shed a bit sometimes, then start growing again. I was concerned the fist time I seen it.

Wow - yours look awesome. I hope mine gets to be that big and full.
Thanks for your reply....I will look for the white growth you describe.
