Is this what it’s supposed to look like? It’s a bubble tip, the tentacles are kind of curling out I also saw my person crab ripping part of the tentacles the other day I’m just so confused. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

are they waving in the flow?

BTA tentacles don't always bubble up, and in high flow and high light, they can be more wavy and lengthy as you see in that photo.

A video might be helpful to see what they are like in the flow.

Also, what is this "person crab" you speak of? you said you saw it take away a tentacle?
