Anybody have any experience with Fox Coral's ?

I bought one yesterday and the thin was large when open.
It has been in the tank now for almost 24 hours and has not fully opened.
I do have it sorta high in the tank with low-medium flow.
It's a 29 gal tank with 130w PC


It has opened just a little.
Should I worry it hasn't opened fully yet?
Move it?

Thoughts ?????

And when ever you move them, they take about a week to stop feeling grumpy. At least mine does.

Actually it opened to twice the size as it was the day before right after the move.
I think it may still have too much flow.
I may need to move 3-4 corals around to find it a good spot.

Currently my long tenacle plate coral is climbing up the side of the tank.It may need a room of it's own,which would free up a bottom area

Thanks for everyones imput

These are very sensitive corals. Low Flow And Low Light seems to work best
