So some of my corals, specially my new chalice coral, candy cane, and space invader pectinia look super inflated when the lights are off. They good during the day too but at night they seem to inflate even more, and this is contradictory to what I have seen on many threads about corals shrinking at night? I don’t know if this is normal or even considered good, this is my first tank and while I am decently knowledgeable on reefing, I don’t have much experience.
I will post some pics too (taken at night)
Also the bottom right of the space invader is normally fully rounded out if that her crab wasn’t there.
Here are my parameters
alk- 8.5
Cal-430
Mag1340
Ph-8.2-8.0
Phosphate- 0.05
Nitrate- 5
