They just came on a piece of live rock, I didn't purchase them, some of them seem to be budding, but I'm not sure if there's anything else I can be supplementing them with besides the normal filter feeder food... Any advice would be great. Thanks in advance guys!!

They look almost like really sad trumpet corals.


Whats your parameters + lighting in the tank?
 
They remind me of a tube coral. Try checking on them when the lights go off and see if the polyps open in the dark.
 
Salinity is 1.025, nitrates around 5, water temperature hangs around 79, it's a nano only six gallons. The polyps do open up, and I feed the other coral in the tank the filter feed, I can't remember the name of it and I'm at work... The ones that are still pretty yellow do seem to brighten up on occasion. I have a t5 coral sun fluorescent bulb.
 
So, this picture of them is the most I've seen them open, and its right after j tried to target feed some mysis... Thanks for all the help guys, they seem to be doing ok...
