can you see its skelaton, not the shell but the ridges under its body, does it look like the body is lifting or any tearing of the skin??

Thanks for the help!
it does open - but only a fraction (~10%) of what it used to
there is white 'cob webby' stuff on it every morning
can't see the skeleton ... it is really just puffy all the time. it looks to be intact to the edge of the shell.
I am going to go get my SLR camera and take some good pics to send over tonight ... stay tuned!

If so, ensure copper was never used.

Thanks for your interest paddyob!
gravel - well: I bought it from the LFS and it is finely crushed coral ... I believe. The regular stuff. Definitely not the sand you would find on a beach in Cancun!
I bought the tank second hand - it was used for salt water fish only prior ... and I cleaned it with vinegar and rinsed thoroughly prior to using. I have 2 other LPSs and a SPSs currently doing well in the tank.
