Will not open

[cboylan1606]

Idk if it’s just not happy or what the deal is. Has been in the tank for almost a month and still won’t open

It’s dead……

 

[Chrisv.]

Is that just a skeleton?

 

[FMF0331]

Looks dead

 

[jassermd]

Yeah, it's dead...

 

[cboylan1606]

That’s how it was when I put it in. It opened for about half a day then closed and has been that way since

 

[Goaway]

Well you put in a dead coral. Unfortunately the person who sold it to you scammed you

Sorry in advance op I really mean no disrespect but I chuckled for some reason at the thought of you looking every day waiting for it to open. It sucks someone did that though. If ya live close I'll throw ya a frag of a hammer or frog I have

Any suggestions on where to buy from online. As clearly where I’m purchasing from I’m not having any luck. I thought it was a goner but I was hoping maybe it was something else

Is there a local reef club in your state? That's the best way to get healthy corals at great prices.

Where did you purchase from? Might be good to have that out there if they are selling dead/dying corals.
