My BTA has been like this for a month and I don’t know why. My lighting is good, it’s in medium flow and all my corals are doing great so I’m not sure why it is not inflating all the way.

He looks fine to me
 
Not really an emergency issue as it appears alive and healthy.

However I will follow as I have had one for last 4 years that look the same, besides mine splitting and my clowns hosting one each they are looking very similar.
I will add mine was very bleached when I first added and has chosen to live in this cave pretty much it's life, my lights/white are 30%

They don’t always get the classic tips but can still be healthy. I have a Black Widow variation and it has hardly any bubbling but it’s heathy and happy

Some will bubble up and some will not. I have 4 in my tank. 2 BTAs not bubble at all and another 2 will bubble after I fed them then back to straight tentacles.
 
That’s a feather duster worm correct?

How long did you wait until adding it? It looks normal to mee.
