Is it normal for it to be closed up like this? Hence the lights are on it opens fully and the tissue is puffy in a good way
 
It looks unhappy. I bought one locally yesterday and it was almost fully opened today.

Before someone else asks, post the details of your tank and water parameters.
 
It doesn't look very good. As mentioned above, need water parameters and tank history info to help.
 
We need more info on your tank to figure out why it is closing up the way it is.

Um, normal with lights out.

Pic with lights on is needed.
Flesh looks like it comes down plenty.
Looks healthy to me.
 
Respect to Dburr perhaps he is right and perhaps the flow is very high causing the polyps to retract so much at night.

But this is mine at night, polyps are shrunk but still out and still moving in the flow with no skeleton visible.
