LPS (Large Polyp Stony)

Just a really nice goni I won on a raffle card in biggs lagoons stream!

Hi everyone, got home from work and noticed one of my torches “bubbling” / inflating near the mouth. Is this normal? Any insight is much appreciated! As well as any tips on taking pictures with an iPhone haha

Joking aside, does anyone know what might cause it to over inflate so much? It always looks like this, not just occasionally overinflated, always super puffed up. Other corals in the tank are looking normal and happy.

I keep my water parameters at about:

KH- 8.6

CA- 430

MAG- 1320

Nitrate- 10-15

I recently read an article by reef builders about these large polyp stoney corals that made a look over my collection ! Here it is--------------

Acanthastrea pachysepta is a reclassification of a coral that has stumped us for well over a decade. Formerly classified as a Lophyllia (which now includes all Symphyllia too), the majority of orange lobos exhibit a different color, pattern, morphology and especially behavior than any other typical Lobos.

Superficially, the coral formerly known as ‘Lobophyllia’ pachysepta looks pretty much like any other Lobo – it has typical one to two inch diameter polyps which are semi-circular, and occasionally grow out into meandering valleys just like a lobo. However this species never really grows quite as massively large as a typical Lobophyllia colony and they usually have a more lustrous, almost metallic quality of orange coloration that reminds us of another familiar coral, Acanthastrea.

Coloration and basic…
