Stylophora Shape Change?

[Reef_Box]

So I have a question about my Stylophora that hopefully someone out there can help me with. I have attached a picture of my Stylo from about 2 years ago. The branches are separate and spaced out. I have also attached a picture of my Stylo now. It has grown a lot and is very happy, but it is very dense and the branches are not separate. Does anyone out there know what would make it do that? It seems happy, but do I have it too close to the light or what? I like the separate branches and would like to figure out how to get back to that.



Sorry for the bad photos with my iPhone....

I know some acros, millis for example, will change according to how much flow they receive.

Where is yours placed? May want to place it in a higher flow area.

That does make sense. I curious now. It was in a low/medium flow area. I switched tanks and now it is in a high glow area. It's has an MP10 blowing right across the top.
