i don't feed my corals very often, maybe once every 3-4 weeks. Since I got my alveopora, I have not fed the corals, till last night.
I used the reefroids, like normal. Put it in the tank and I observed for a bit. Once the cloud decreased I noticed the Alveoporas did not open back up. I didn't think too much about it, maybe it takes them to digest the food, if they do. I just got home and noticed that they are still closed up. Barely open.
They are either in a food coma, or they are ticked that I tried feeding them. I am not overly concerned yet, but I am certainly monitoring. The rest of the corals are open and seem to be back to normal.

Has anyone else experienced this when it comes to alveos?
 
Just before feeding it was fluffy and moving with the current. Totally opposite now.
