I'm acclimating this bubble coral right now and its mouth is open so wide I can see its skeleton. It was inflated when I picked it up so I couldn't see the its mouth, but had to drive an hour home after picking it up so it deflated a bit. Should I be concerned? Not sure I want to dip because I don't want to stress it any more. Getting parameters right now.

Hopefully it will settle in nicely once acclimated, but a gapping mouth is never a good sign. Crossing my fingers for you!
