Can someone tell me what’s going on here this Duncan has been thriving for a while now started with two heads and is now close to 10. It has closed up at times but never looked like this. If it’s dying or dead it makes now sense all other coral are good parameters are in check nothing has change. This makes no sense

Is the Duncan coral the only one that seems upset, or do other corals? I'm wondering if something might have bothered it.

Mine also is growing like crazy, but occasionally all the heads will suck in like that??? I always just assumed that it was a hermit or something made it mad? It will usually puff back out after a while. See how it looks later in the day.

The reason I’m concerned is cause it will close up from time to time but this time it looks more shriveled than it does just closed
