Can you put scoly and button scoly next to to other? I want to glue the button close to my scoly. Also my scoly seems to be outgrowing it’s skeleton base so it’s crinkled, is that normal? How can it grow the base more?

The one on the right looks like a trachyphyllia
Calcium 470, mag at 1500. I don’t use kalk. Dosing small amount of all for reef, phytoplankton, restor, iodide, amino but not all are daily. All corals in my tank are happy, I think the scoly is happy, puffs up when lights are on. It was bad at one point where it stayed retracted for months and bubble algae/other algae start growing on its skeleton because I had neglected the tank but I had since clean it off and it’s fine now. Probably why it’s looking like it is now.What’s your calcium and magnesium levels? Also are you using Kalk to help corals absorb nutrients better?
Also look for pest, the lower right section of the scoly looks like expose skeleton. Maybe a coral disease or pest
Yup you found your answer, if algae got on the skeleton then the coral won’t grow over it. Just make sure you keep the tank clean and the coral skeleton if possibleCalcium 470, mag at 1500.
