Hello, my hammer coral is not fully extending itself so I wanted to check here if anyone had advice on whether it needs to be moved to a different position in the tank with less flow or light? If so please let me know where would be ideal in my tank if you don’t mind, pics below. I’d say the current situation is med/high flow and high light, positioned in the top right of the rockwork. Water parameters are ideal:

1.026 salinity
0-5 nitrate
78 F temp
8.2PH

What are your other parameters? Need more information about tank.
 
All the above questions plus what are your phosphates? , are you using RODI for making your saltwater and top off ? , what light schedule and intensity?
