Posting here to get more feedback. So far my new lobo (Friday) has not gotten all puffy nor have I seen feeding tentacles. At night it retracts even more. Under lights, it opens and colors up but still looked receded to skeleton. I moved to even lower flow--on the frag rock back a bit. At least I think that should be lower as it is shielded on all sides. Does it need higher light? What I read says low light, low flow

Lights 75 blue 15 white

ca 400
alk 8.9
mg 1440
po4 .08 Sometimes a bit higher
no3 10 runs 10-20
Salinity is a bit high--my ato wasn't working so I'm slowly bringing it back down. just discovered this. Around 1.030
Everything else seems to be fine.

Pics are with zoom. First pic is day I got it (Friday). 1 pic with an orange filter. Last pic shows placement.

What does it need? Time?

Should I move it more to where there is an overhang? lights blue 75 white 15. flow is prob. low but the blasto near it is doing okay so far. Feeding tentacles come out at night anyway

I'll take new pics when my whites come on
