    Be patient with the sun coral. It is still new to your tank and getting acclimated. Once it settles in it should polyp out more. You may want to check on it an hour or so after your lights go out. They will typically try to feed in the evening hours. If you see it open you can spot feed it melted brine or mysis shrimp using a child's medicine syringe. Don't try to do too much to your tank though. Sometimes we all have to learn the hard way which corals and fish thrive or don't thrive within our tanks. A sun coral is not the easiest of corals to care for. The other corals you listed are better for beginners.
