So this toadstool is a new comer. After a 5 day acclimation on the bottom center of the tank I moved it here just below and outside one of my LEDs. The polyps are all extended but the “wing tips” as I call them Are folded back up. Is it not happy with this spot. Plenty of flow.

They move around depending on the flow and is completely normal. It looks like a healthy specimen to me!
 
Thanks! I noticed that through the course of any day, my Xennia and Cespitularia will close up for a while and then fully extend an hour later. Union negotiated break I guess. :)
 
Agreed looks fine... our do that all the time. We even get funny extensions when they want more light
