Candy cane inflation

[pjdiddy]

So I have a small colony of candy cane on my old tank. It never gave me a problem, always nice and inflated. However. I transfered it to my new set up, in the process I fragged it too. The first picture is the one with more heads and located towards the bottom and has direct light. The second picture is located on a frag rack only couple inches from the water line and sort of in a shaded area.

As you guys can see on the picture they are completely different, inflation wise. So what is the deal?

I'm thinking it's a difference in flow from being in a different area of the tank. I've seen them thrive in different lighting intensities so I don't think it's lighting. Ours are under a halide. Both look healthy IMO
