Default Polyps of some sort

I have my neighbors latest addition in my tank trying to save it.

It looks like some sort maybe star polyps. They do not look so hot shriveled up and sure some are dead is there anything I should try?

I have two small power heads pointing at them. Iodine dip or some thing?

Any suggestions would be great

Cheers

leave them alone. Put them in moderate flow, not too much brighter than they are used to and cross your fingers.
Direct flow is likely too much right now, so just follow the above and make sure your water is clean. It will take a few days for them to adjust.

Bounce the flow off the glass into the polyps. The should have indirect current. Most Polyps are light lovers so maybe some PC's of VHO's would help. It seem MH's would be too bright right now.
