Hi guys, I have had my green bubble coral now for two weeks and I have moved it around in my tank to cater its needs. It opens fully in the a.m and closes partially in the afternoon evening. I am running T5's (50/50), My ph 8.3, Nitrates 0, Ammonia 0, Phosphate 0, flow is minimal, temp 80C, it is resting on the sand bed calcium 420, KH 10. I feed it cyclopeeze, phyto. Is this behaviour normal?

Make sure it isn't getting too much flow. They like moderate flow.

Sounds totally normal, they shrink at night.. As long as it inflates its fine..

Sounds normal, they shrink during the ending of the lighting period and extend their tentacles for feeding.
