need help with ID piece not happy

[shainline]

I am trying to figure out what this piece is so I know how to care for it. In this pic is it pretty happy half way to all the way open.. Now its not opeing at all!

looks like a kenya tree. should be happy just about anywhere, except for when it drops branches, then it shrivels sometimes.

+1 and sometimes when it drops branches the dropped pc. will become a new frag altogether.

No kidding!! lol I have babies all over my tank. I have to corral them up and put them in the same place as the mother piece! lol The break off, float and reattach elsewhere...

I wish my green kenya would just grow. lol

well that makes since, maybe it broke off at some point. Cuz it is ALL shriveled up!! I thought something was wrong with it. How long will it stay closed up?

well to give you a idea how tough these things are i was bored and curious to see how much they can take so i took a scissors to one of my many many trees. it shriveled up pretty fast and stayed shriveled for 4or 5 days and was back to normal after that...

I am getting so many, I am starting to throw them in the sump....
