Good afternoon, I recently got this Pavona coral and seems to be doing great. I’ve noticed the last couple days what seem to be sweeper tentacles out on it (even during daytime lighting). Curious to see if this is normal?

I broadcast feed the tank once daily brine shrimp/pellets & Red Sea reef nutrition 3X a week. Are these sweeper tentacles and is it normal for them to be out during daytime cycle everyday?

Looks healthy to me. I will say I rarely saw my pavona's sweepers out, but the ones at my LFT often have theirs out. . . So as long as the tank is looking healthy I would not worry about it. These are pretty hard corals in my experience.
 
Never seen that in mine. Really like that coral.
