i have this gsp that has not opened up since i got it (4 days ago) i know some gsp could take months to open but i havent seen not even a tip of a polyp. decided to pull it out the tank and clean some detritus on it. i flipped the purple mat and saw tunnels under the mat which was also build out off the mat of the gsp but inside those tunnels were like sand but so much more fine. now im thinking that maybe something was living inside the gsp that was contributing to it not opening up. are those tunnels a normal part of a gsp?
every other coral are thriving except the gsp.
