I have a few small pieces and have to say they are very attractive and are spreading quickly. I found it took three or four days to open up fully. They now seem pretty bombproof.

I had the coral in one part of my tank and I just moved to where I like it the most. I noticed that there was only a couple heads popped out of the hundreds there is on the coral

Don't worry, give it a little more time in its new position. If you can make out the little white polyp in their tubes then eventually they should come out.
