Rookie mistake. I bought this Duncan not long after setting up the tank because I heard they were "easy".
Those 2 bleached branches were there when I bought it. Stupidly, I superglued it to the main rock before I realised it should have sat lower in the tank. Until now, it only extended it's polyps when the lights were off at night (normal) and before the lights were on in the morning in ambient light.
Finally, I think it has adapted to the light conditions and starting to enjoy life.
I moved the Duncan off the rock face and away from the glass to a lower position. It doesn't seem to have minded the change of view.
Love me some baby Duncan’s!
The Duncan is legitimately insane. For something I was worried about for the first few weeks, its growth is amazing.
Happy Duncan ....
Duncan always steals the show. Tripled in size and grew two more heads since we picked him up a little over a month ago.
Duncan coral looking pretty good
The frag is only been in the tank for 1 week 🤩
Update on the Duncan and the shrimp starts to come out more during feeding
Duncan opening
The Duncan is not a fan of the light, but it sure likes it when the lights are off.

Got a few additions this weekend thanks to the awesome guys at Houston Aquarium Warehouse. Also got the Duncan glued down and he’s thriving!
Can't get enough of these Duncan dudes
