So I got this new frogspawn maybe a week ago looks healthy when light turn on. I was looking at him just before light’s out on my tank and he was closed up a little and I worried me a little because I don’t want this very expensive frogspawn dying. I decided to wait till night to look at him. Once all the lights were out I looked at the frogspawn closed up and the mouth is open and look kind of white is this bad. Maybe he just splited. Also on the first picture you can see that some parts of him are touching the rock. Also on the last picture the biggest head was the head with the open mouth you can’t really see it in the photo because his tenticals are brushing around.

It looks fine to me based on the pictures if this is your night lights. The soft tissue can touch the rocks, they just may get scratched up a little depending on how strong your flow is but nothing that will really hurt the coral. Look at those with large euphyllia gardens, they do fine. :)
If you see it spitting up brown stuff(zooxanthellae) or brown stuff on the flesh itself(brown jelly disease) then be worried otherwise it looks good.
 
Yes
