Sounds like water parameters could be out of whack. Small but frequent water change is your best friend as always. My GSP don't like low calcium level and stay closed when its low (200 or so, get it up to 400).
You can manually clean what you don't like to have from the frag and then put it back in. If it shows growth and not dissolving its still ok. The other reason for it not opening is something is bothering it or feeding on it. Keep in mind that it is very hard to get rid of GSP once its starts growing it will kill almost any coral on its way especially SPS.

I'm more thinking it just didn't survive transport it's only been in my tank 3 days my sps is fine and I just did my weekly waterchange. And I know it's like a weed that's why it's on it's own rock in front
 I'll clean the frag off in a few then, just scraping will be fine? Bryopsis and hydroids won't just grow back?Last edited by Aquaria; 04-04-2011 at 10:30 PM.

Chances are it is fine. GSP is tough to kill even if you are trying to kill it. Give it a few more days and it will probably show signs of life. If it is still purple it is good.

I agree. Give it a few months and you'll probably wish it had died.

Hay man I have to jump in on this I know a guy that had his tank crash even killed his fish he tried putting more fish in and bam they died too he was not cleaning his gravel and after a year it started killing every thing. GH grow over every thing this is when he started to listen to me and I helped him clean up his tank and now there's no algae growing gave him a hydro Korella 3 for flow he bought a HOB skimmer and is using that now. The only things that survived his crash was GSP and devils hand frag I gave him tough stuff those two corals are. I have a couple corals waiting for him.

Iknow gsp is tough that's why I'm really surprised it hasn't opened yet, had a heater break on an old tank and the temp got upto 95-100 or something and the only 2 things that looked as if nothing was wrong was my gsp an Aussie Duncan lol that's why I figured it would have opened by now if it was still alive but I'll give it a few more days and watch for new growth
