Myka, If you want if you want more tentacle extension have you tried puting them where there is bit more flow?

here's a pic of mine tonight, as you can see the flow is pretty good (at least compared to yours)

Ya, mine get SUPER stubby if I put them in medium flow. Mine have very little flow where they are, and little light too. I can't seem to make them very happy...they have the best PE in the dark when the lights are off! They tend to retract several times a day too.

Oh, mine act more like the euphyllias they retract at night and extend during the day .

I got mine from J&L last Tuesday. 11 heads. They are looking really nice and mine also retract at night. I will try and post pictures tomorrow.

mine as well are out in full force during the day and retract at night....it's a nice coral. Mine has several heads now and started with just 1 on each frag. AND the added bonus is that no pests bother them!

Ok, so mine are tweaked! I just moved mine to see what happens...maybe they will decide they like more flow and more light.
