Alveopora frag questions

[Dcolognesi]

Hi guys I picked up this alveopora frag at my LFS yesterday and it was opened up beautifully after acclimation and all
This morning I woke up before the lights came on and noticed it was already open? When the lights came on it closed back up!
I have one of the coralife lights with the
Duel HO uv bulbs and then the daytime bulbs. The blues come on for about an hour before the daytime.
Anyone els had this issue?

When did you move it from the sand to the frag rack?

Last night because I had a crab that didn't want to leave it alone... I moved it back thinking the problem was moving it to the rack and it still looks the same??

Alveopora are very touchy corals, give it a few days to get used to your system parameters and light cycle. If the crab picks at it, that is a problem. Especially new to your system, if the crab causes it tissue damage, it can really hurt the coral. Good luck with it, I hope it lives for you, its a beautiful coral
