I got my Xenia Colony today - Questions....

[thud]

I ordered from SWF.com - a Xenia Colony:

This is what it looks like in my tank, (acclimated for 3 hours)

What's wrong with it? It looks very weak..
It isn't orange/brown like it is in SWF's picture. It is a blue/white...
This is exactly how it looked in the bag when I received it today.

It is very stressed and trying to acclimate itself, the next 12 hrs are crucial, BUT it should bounca back strong! especially the WHITE pom pom... give it some time.

looks normal to me, xenia is a crappy coral to ship. the one you got actually looks better than the one they picture except is not open yet. its just stressed give it a couple days to come around.
