My hammer is starting to look long and stringy. Is it getting too much direct flow? We bought him with one head of the coral dead, so perhaps he was already sick?

It looks fine for now, but yes, I think its getting too much flow on the one side, I would turn it down a notch.

The hammer right behind it is getting the perfect flow, I love it when the polyps jiggle, but I guess its protected more by that rock.
