Different, but kinda looks like it has a virus or something.

I have some that are doing the same thing. Someone said it could be from too much light. Mine open up like there happy and have been this way for at least 6 months or more.
It also seems to be more on the top where they are getting the most par.

There is another topic thread where a chalice is getting bubbles on it. It looks as though a bubble coral has popped up on a few areas.

I friend of mine had this happen to a few acan lords. But it went away after a couple of years. Wonder if it is an environment thing or a virus mutation. No different than adding a virus to plants to create variegated leaves or parrot type tulips.
