Neon Green Toadstool opening and closing

[ratherBreefing]

Hi reefers,

I am new to the hobby. I have a 32g biocube with LED lights. Tank cycled for 1 month. I have added several frags of LPS (hammer, frogspawn, GSP, ausi duncan). I added them on same day after proper acclimation and dipping. All the corals are doing fine, better than what they were in the store. My parameters are 0 ammonia, 1-2 ppm nitrate, 7.5 alk, 1.025 salinity, temp: 79. I am only using blue LEDs for the moment, I want to increase the light slowly to avoid any algae bloom.

My neon green toadstool was closed for 1 day and then opened for sometime when I increased the light. It closed again that night after light went out but did not open next morning with lights. The tentacles extend or close like thsi randomly. Now I have moved it a bit closer to light (still moderate) and bit more flow. Any suggestions?

Thanks

Stop moving it around they need to be acclimate to the new tank, it probably needs more lights. Toadstool closes n sheds a thin film as they grow, What lighting are you using

Thank you for suggestions. I moved it from a low light area to area where there was bit more light and flow. Now its doing well :spin1:. It opens as my light turn on in the morning. I was waiting for 2 days before I make any moves could have waited a little longer.
