My torch corals look likes he’s been stuck in feeding mode for more than one day. He looks more shrinked and retracted. Yesterday I did spot feed him ab+ as usual.
Here are the picture in before and after. Is it a normal thing? Or is it something else.

Just checked parameters
Alk : 8.3
Cal : 400
Mag: haven’t checked hehe

1st pic is him right now

2rd pic is him few days ago

It still looks quite healthy, corals and nems can retract slightly while “digesting”. Any other recent changes in nitrate or phosphate?

I did change the carbon yesterdat with a new one. But I don’t think it would raise nitrate or phos. And I changed it before feeding them.
