My acantho seems to be closing up super tight at night and is piercing its flesh with its skeleton. Sometimes it looks fine with its feeder tentacles out and sometimes it looks super bad. It looks great during the day so im not sure what could be going on for it to do that only at night. Is it just a normal thing they do? Its been in the tank for about a month.

I don't have any known coral nippers in the tank, besides an emerald crab.
