What is this on my hammer?

[00pflint]

I'm not sure what these are and I'm a bit concerned

Can’t see much. Turn down the blue and turn up the white for photos

The white fins going around the top of the skeleton of the hammer? Is that what you're asking about?

 

[Shirak]

I would agree with Kizzy. Appears to be a lot of skeleton showing and not much left of the polyp.

Yes it is. My cameras doesn't seem to let me do much to adjust the lighting lol

Try moving it to a lower light area with gentle flow for awhile is my suggestion. If it already is i would then check water parameters to make sure they're all good.

You have to adjust the lights over your tank. Either set them to all white for the picture or, what I've found works well, is to point a bright flashlight at the object your taking a picture of. That'll overwhelm the blue from the reef lights and make things show up better on camera.

An orange filter over the lens is also a great tool for improving images under blue lights. In a pinch even holding the cheap coral glasses over the lens can do wonders for the final image.
