I bought a candy cane coral last Wednesday and it hasn’t opened while my grape coral is fully extended I tried changing the lighting power changing it spots to adjust flow but nothing! Any suggestions? Is it dead?

If you just got it, it can take some time to acclimate. What conditions it came from may and most likey were different.
If it were dead, you would not see that nice tissue around it. It actually looks good, just not opening fully. It will get puffy if in the correct flow and light. Looks like it is in indirect, which can be fine, but may need more direct depending on how it develops.
