Is it possible for a euphyllia hammer to extend to much?
I might be wrong but mine looks so extended, also I feel that they a a bit pale (not possible to see in the blue light)

I run my hydra32 on the lower end, I did measure and it is around 70-100 PAR

I know blue light sucks for photo, but I still think you see that they are so ”extended”


Or am I just overreacting?

In my experience, when corals and anemones extend that way, they are trying to get more light.
 
PAR level of your tank?
 
I've never seen a hammer reaching for light, but thats my first thought when I see the pic.
