Last night my frogspawn went from plump and happy to almost like a deflated balloon. All other corals in my tank are doing great, even the other frogspawn. I dont have a good before picture, but it was looking similar to the orange frogspawn picture ive provided.

Params

Alk- 10.5
Mag-1300
Calc- 460
Nitrate 8.3
Phos .12

I have been dealing with cyano, and now an ugly stage after treating with chemiclean and doing a water change. Other than that the tank is pretty solid. Any thoughts on what is going on with the frogspawn?

Thanks

Its normal when lights ramp down that corals close or after treatment. Make sure it get plenty flow and light. Also adding a little bit of carbon in the sump will help with removing the treatment and any unwanted toxins

I have a Octospawn with several heads and they just kind of do their own thing! Sometime very out and fluffy, and sometimes, not so much. I have never really found a reason
