Wondering if anyone can suggest what might be upsetting my orange hammer? I moved it from one tank to another a little while back and it’s looked like this ever since.
Lighting is one AI Prime HD which is likely giving off less light than in the previous tank.

All other euphyllia seem fine, torches, hammers and frogspawn.

if anyone can read the signs please share!

Check for flatworms, they should look like pieces of coral flesh that will squirm when you squirt freshwater. If you have fish or inverts that pick or bother hammers especially during feeding, that may cause your hammer to shrivel too. Another possible factor could be flow, mine would shrivel if my flow is too much for it.

There are no fish in this tank so I can rule that out. I can double check for pests though.
Flow will be next thing. Maybe the placement is just wrong for it.
It’s an IM 25 lagoon with one MP10 on it running at about 50% on pulse.
