can some one fill me in on why my frogspawn tentacles puff up? I just got him about 4 days ago and this is my very first coral. Idk what going on is this a bad thing or a good thing? It's not like this all the time just once and a while they puff up and go down after a couple of mins. Can some one please fill me in on what's going on.

i agree with nano-during day lights he will puff up and be happy but once the whites go off (and blues are all thats on) he will suck back in.
All euphillia does this

Normal behavior. Depends upon type of frogspawn on how much they do it and how much light they get. My peach frogspawn does not puff anything like my green and purple.
