When I first got my hammer coral it was fully open and I got deployed and had my wife feed and do my water changes. When I came back home I realized that the middle of the coral would be retracted but the outsides would be open. I also noticed that it was in the process of splitting into two heads from one. When I feed I AB+ I can see two mouth eating. Same thing is happening with my gold hammer. My alk stays at 8.7 phos and nirt are normal not 0 but not to high. My phos do get a tad high but come down. Cac is good. I do water changes every 3 weeks. I’ll attach some pictures if y’all want to see how it looks. Would love any feedback!

Appreciate it, I don’t see anything tissue or skeleton problems. I just never seen the middle where the heads are splitting be so retracted and kinda fat while the outside is perfect. Just wanted to get another opinion but I’m pretty sure It’s just splitting
