Hi everyone, It’s me again haha. I just went to check on my corals after lights out and noticed that my frogspawn has its mouth fully out and open. Is this normal? It is healing from an injury currently.
Frogspawn coral mouth open while sleeping?

I was being dumb and didn’t make it close enough before I moved it in the aquarium, lesson learned. It lost a couple of tentacles even though I touched them super lightly, didn’t realize they would come off so easily.

So I’ve done that. And as long as all the polyps don’t bail out...you’ll know and see an exposed skeleton it should be fine. I’ve had that happen before to another coral from moving it and the rest of the polyps are fine.I was being dumb and didn’t make it close enough before I moved it in the aquarium, lesson learned.

Unfortunately skeleton is exposed, but I’m pretty sure I actually bought it that way as I didn’t notice when it was fully extended in the store

Just keep an eye on it. They can recover and considering most of the coral looks fine it should be okay.

Okay will do, thank you! When it’s fully open during the day it’s beautiful, can’t even tell it’s hurt
