Hello Reefers,
I just got back into the hobby a few months ago and wanted to know if my INDO frogspawn (left pic) looks healthy/normal to you? I feel the tentacles are super inflated. All my other LPS corals (torches and hammers) looks good. Should I be worried?

How strong is your light? Corals look this way sometimes when they are not getting enough light.
I have 3 AI 26 about 14" from the water. Unfortunately I don't have a PAR meter.

Maybe I'm just worrying too much. Yes, it does look like a torch but definitely a frogspawn...here's a better PIC.

These look good to me!

it could be the photo but they have a slight “clear” look. Could be slightly bleaching, maybe too much or too little light. But I think both look good to me!
