Yea, try keeping some nitrates in tank, if you bring those levels to 0, corals seems to hate that and don't grow or open happy. Xenyas are a good test for nitrates, the high you have the faster they pulse

I would recomend you to add some Iodine, that will helps a lot to your soft corals and the soft parts from any of your corals
