Hi all! I recently purchased my Duncan colony ~1 week ago, and I recently moved it to a place where it got more flow and 1 head loves it, while the other literally won’t open. I’m not sure what to do to combat this, and looking for help.

I can't tell for sure with that photo, but the left polyp looks dead and the tissue mostly wasted away. Could be shadowing in the photo though.

I can try and close up the other polyp so u can get another look, it was open yesterday, but I moved it to a more flowy spot because it didn’t seem happy with where it was placed.
 
I would stop moving it. If one head is open and extended then that spot is conducive to Duncans. Everytime you move a coral you stress it.
