I got a rock of polyps and, has been in tank since last night and still have not opened up. i tested water for nitrate and its low, tested nitrite and ammonia to be safe and none of that. ph is 8.2. and salinity is 1.023.

what should I do is this normal?

Yes, that is normal. I've had them take 2-3 days or more to open. Hang in there.
