Mushroom behavior

My Mushroom (Green Flourscent) just 'puffed inwards' and then went back to normal. Does anyone know why this happened?

Tks

It may have caught some food floating by and closed in on it, or something may have disturbed it. Either way, if it doesn't look distressed (i.e. bleaching, shrinking, expelling guts/zooxanthellae), then you're fine.
No worries.

Nice colony of rhodactis btw, are they solid green or are those blue undertones I see?
