I’ve been acclimating some corals into a new tank. The old tank light intensity was too low I think because they always seemed really stretched out toward the surface then the Wellsi closed up and didn’t open much for a couple of weeks. They have been in the new tank for a few weeks now and the Wellsi looks all stubby but not quite like what I see in most pictures online. The Duncan looks good to me and has a small bulge where a new polyp is forming. The tentacles look fatter and stubby also. I’m working out the light schedule but it has been very similar in this tank since I started it. The light is a Kessil AP9x. The other corals all look like what I expected so I don’t think it is water parameters. My question is, do these look normal to you?

Look good. remember to keep the light and all as stable as possible.
Both feed 2-3X a week with mysis favorable.
 
Great. Thanks. I’m sure the Kessil light will do wonders. I’m just not comfortable with them yet.
Remain in acclimation mode a few days then adjust gradually as needed.
