Someone please help me with why my haddoni is looking like this. It is still very sticky, mouth is closed, and it just ate day before yesterday. It moved about 2 weeks ago, which was about 3 days after I moved it and it stung the crap outta me. My lighting is AI sol blues. I just got another one and had to dial them back, because I bleached some of my acro's. It can't be lighting strength. Give me some ideas please. Don't be afraid to throw out any idea you have. Here's a pic

Ok thanks. I just want it to look like a normal haddoni. It appears as if it's stretching for light and I just don't understand. It's done this ever since I had my alk fluctuation 5 weeks ago. My alk is stable now and has been for a month.
 
Looks healthy but does look like it may have put its self in a shaded area and is stretching for the light.

It looks healthy to me too. The mouth is probably closed since it ate recently. What did it eat? Sometimes, if they eat a big meal they strech like that till its digested. It may be streching for the light too but I cant tell by the pic how much light its getting. It has to store the food for digestion in its "sock" area so It streches like that till its digested. Then it will flatten back out and open up again to catch its next meal. I wouldn't worry about it yet.
 
Reminds me of some of my mushrooms when they stretch up from time to time. Does look a bit like its stretching up for light.
