kenya tree coral sagging

I've got my large kenya tree coral starting to sag. I've had the coral for about 5 months now and it's been really hardy so far. I noticed today that it's bending at the waist now. I did just add another light. Could that be the problem, or is this common with a nutritional deficiency? It's in a 75 gallon tank that used to have 220 watts of PC light, 3/4 ths of that was actinic, but I just added another light, it's an 18000K 40 watt bulbs that's being overdriven with a ballast meant for a 4 T8s, so I'm guessing I went from 220 watts to around 300 watts?

Thanks in advance.
 
mine does that sometimes like right before the self fragging cycle but then it comes right back sometimes when the flow gets changed it will do it
 
Ok, thanks. We'll see if it's in a 'delicate' state for now and I won't worry. I'd never seen it do that before.
 
I have also noticed reproducing not long after they start to get a little limp so I as well dont believe you have anything to worry about
