How much flow is he being hit with??? they like to sway more often than not instead of being blown around a lot.... as for lighting they can withstand a lot of light if acclimated properly... maybe check the PH and Alkalinity?
 
Calcium isn't the problem here.
I would check high nutrients and ALK here.
Temp and PH wouldn't be bad either.
 
We have about 10 in our house. They all do different things at different times. It's my belief they have a mind of their own. Yours doesn't look to bad to me.

It's not visually getting blasted. I have a Jebao pw4, on the opposite end of the tank usually on speed 1 wave1, in the back corner near the frogspan is my return which is a 90 degree 3/4 pvc. My tank is a 20 gallon long. It's place on the top of some rock work on the front right corner, lighting is 24 t5ho Attintic and 10k.

Hi thanks,

Temp is 77.5 - 78
PH has been solid on 8.0
ALK 8
Ammonia 0, Nitrate 0 and nitrate 0
SG 1.024 (trying to move that up to 1.025-26 via weekly water changes)

That must look awesome! It kinda just looks semi deflated like a anemone on about 30% of its tentacles on both heads.
