I got a coral that was not looking that great at the lfs but had great potential, I was told the name is a medusa coral, however, when I have researched I have found other types of medusa but none that look like this so I think it may be something else. Does anyone have any ideas what it could be?

I would think that coral would love a whole lot of flow. Just give it a little time to settle down and expand. A week or so. Those leathers can be temperamental sometimes.

Flow its got plenty of, but I did have it to the side of the tank away from the halides, so I have moved itt under them now hoping that will help it had some black tips on some of the fingers so I have scraped those off as well. Hope this guy makes it as I have never seen one like this before
