I picked up my first coral today. Its a Green Star Polyp about 3" in Diameter. I know they can be a weed but I was looking for something hardy and relatively cheap to "test the water" before I invested in some larger more expensive varieties. The LFS owner said it would be a few days before it opened up but it seems to have opened up quite a bit in the 6 hours since I introduced him into the tank.
I expect that if anything will go wrong it will do so in less than 2 weeks. In the event it dies I'll wait a little longer, if It survives I'll start to add some more corals. Is 2 weeks long enought to gauge its reaction?
