Hi everyone,

I’m new to saltwater tanks and have a 20 gallon AIO, i recently just picked up my first Frogspawn and I’ve had it for about 2 weeks now and it’s been like this almost the whole time but it doesn’t look like any frogspawn I’ve seen, do yall know what’s wrong with it? It’s slightly translucent and all puffed up, also from the frogspawn I’ve seen I’ve never seen one look like a sunflower like this one. Any advice is appreciated, Thank you!!

(I thought I was shocking it with the light so I put it in the back corner with slight flow going over it)

I’ve seen this with frogspawn and even hammers to an extent when put in a new tank. It’s especially noticeable in the orange/tan ones in my experience. It should darken soon enough. Looks fine overall. I wouldn’t worry for now.
