Montipora with long tentacles / slime after being moved

[NoobishReefer22]

Hello all I just moved my montipora to a frag rack and its showing some really long tentacles or some slime? Any thoughts on if this is okay I just moved it today.

Most likely slime from the stress of moving. Give it a day and see if it continues.

Thank you its right under the power head so I hope its not getting too much flow / being shaded.

Those are called mesenterial filaments, it could be a feeding respons or a defense mechanism to near by corals.

Probably stress slime as said. 1 or 2 hours or should have been gone.

How's it doing?

It’s doing better the slime is gone! A little shakey in my frack rack though but it’s definitely improving.

Mine do not like too much flow. I've had them turn brown and look like they lost flesh in too much flow. Corals typically don't respond well being blown around a a rack either.
