So i bought a new trachyphylliidae at the meeting yesterday, just to make sure i didn't get any hitchhikers and such,  i iodine dipped it. Then i put it in my aquarium, i put it on the bottom, but today it is showing it's skeleton and not doing very well i don't think. I tried to feed it or get a feeding response, but i can't get it to eat. I can't really describe it, but is it normal for them to be really skeletony until they adjust to the tank?

It can be just adjusting. However, I would check the water conditions and the lighting (moderate flow and lighting). They extend more at night, so try checking it then and give it time.

Mine took about a week to adjust to the tank.  Seems like these take longer than other corals to adjust.
