Brain coral help

[veni vidi vici]

Hi all,
I bought a neon green brain friday and i noticed tonight under lunar light that there appears to be short tenticles sticking out around the parimiter of it.
What are these? Is this normal?
TIA

i'm not an expert but it sounds like its feeder tentacles

Well i do belive that would make sence if i knew anything about my Brain Coral.But i dont know squat.

What kind of brain?
But to answer the question, yes it is perfectly normal for them to open at night for feeding.
Lobo.s, Trac.s and Wel.s can seemingly turn themselves inside out when no one is looking.

i believe they hv feeder tentacles around their mouth. these come out during the night to feed. drop some marinesnow or phytoplankton in. they will faster that way.

Trachyphyllia geoffroyi would be my guess,but only a guess.I did know what the care and lighting requirement for it where but wasnt aware it was going to go alien on me
