They look good with puffy tissue. Mine seem to get irritated from algae so I blown the rock around the tissue with a turkey baster frequently.
 
In my experience the one on the left grew that way and will never end up "flat". The skeleton is in that shape and over time as it grows it may flatten some, but I would expect that general shape to it all the time. On the other hand even when the skeleton looks like that once they are happy and "puffed up" it will not be nearly so obvious. Again just my experience.
 
Do they fully open in the dead of darkness?
If so, they be fine.
