Trachyphillia swollen

[jasonrusso]

I recently lost my first trachy so maybe I am being paranoid. I realized that my white light spectrum was too intense and it burnt my first one so I made the correction, but not before I started seeing issues with the new one. Since I adjusted the light, this trachy has been inflating to twice the size.

So, I fed it yesterday (a mix of reef roids and reef chili), and I got a feeding response. Today the middle is very bloated. Is this normal? I'm not usually home during the day, so maybe this is normal? Is this how it flushes itself out?

Looks happy to me.

Looks happy to me.

I went out to do some errands and when I got home it was back to normal. I am assuming that it was absorbing extra water to flush itself out. It was almost round, lol.

It could have been flushing out its system, but I am just leaning towards an exaggerated feeding response. It could have caught a taste of amino acids and swelled up to catch as much as possible, or just buffing up to show off[emoji6].
