How long does it take for kenya trees to open up?

Hey everyone,

I'm boywithafishtank, and yesterday i bought a small sized kenya tree. This kenya tree was looking awesome in the store, and was very healthy. I put it in my tank, and made it stand in some epoxy, to make sure that it will attach. It has now attached itself to the epoxy, however it wont open up. It just leaning forward, like it really weak. It doesnt have alot of color either, its more purplish/blackish. I can see that the polyps are there, but they are just closed. Deos kenya trees shed, like finger leathers? Cause i know when i added my cladellia for a long time ago, it began to shed right away. Is this a common thing with kenya trees too? I dipped the coral aswell. All my other corals are thriving, but this guy doesn't wanna open up. I know that he has only been here for soon 2 days, but i wanted to make sure hes not unhealthy. Thanks!

 

Kenya's are really hardy but can be sensitive to change, especially a new tank. Give it a few days and it should perk up.
