    I purchased a soft nano pack and a toadstool leather from liveaquaria and they have finished acclimating and are in the tank. How do I know if they are doing alright? Frankly I'm not even sure I know what two of the nano corals are, it came with two mushrooms but two are unknown to me.

    I can't even really see the coral in your pics. Put the camera on the glass. It usually helps. It can take a few days for corals to open up. Sometimes they open right away. But starting on the bottom is a good start. A toad stool will extend polyps out of top. Zoas, shrooms will open up to accept light.
