Torch Coral

Hey all just had a question about my torch coral. I picked it up 2 days ago. It kind of looks shriveled up and not really open like it was at the store I bought it from. My water parameters are all okay. I has direct light with indirect flow. The feeders kind of look "flattened" as well. Any ideas? Is anything wrong or should I just leave it alone? I know some people said theres took up to a week Im just not sure if mine looks healthy. Thank you

It is impossible to provide any meaningful advice based on the information you provided. You need to consider what info you can provide that will enable readers to address your concerns. Like recent test results. As far as I know, no one on here is a psychic.

Doesn't look very good. Need to know your exact parameters, "good" doesn't tell anyone anything.

I agree provide tank parameters. I just bought a purple tipped torch last weekend and it was fully out within a hour.

Nice... I just bought a purple torch yesterday and it was also fully opened within an hour of putting it in the tank.
