looks like a green sea mat. If all the polyps are connected by flesh, it's a sea mat, if they are individual it is button polyps. Of course the second one is a blue shroom. |

Try moving them around at differrent heights and water flow and if they like a spot they will open up real nice for you! |

Well right now they are at the top of the tank. Flow is about medium low. What flow rate do they like ?

If I put strong current on them they will close up! I think your medium current is ok and another thing I have learned is when they don't open right away maybe leave them alone for awhile and they may open. I have my under MH lights about half way up the tank. |

I would think PC lights should be more that adequate for polyps!!
Here are some more of my neat zoo's!! I had to move these a couple of times before they were happy! |

I have orange zoos near the top with pc lights. These things have spread to about 6 times the original colony - now I'm trading them for other good stuff like blue ricordia. 
Not to worry, they can sometimes take a couple of days to open.
