Hi there, I got a candy can a while ago as an impulse buy and placed it in a place with too much flow. looking at other candy canes, mine look nowhere as puffy as others. One of the heads has also been extremely retracted. I decided to move them somewhere low where there isn't much flow. When I get home I hope they have puffed back up but is there a way to help the retracted head? I'll try to post pictures later.
Thanks!

Don't look to bad . Do you fed it ? Only asking because when mine looks sad I give it a few mysis shrimp and the next day it's puffy again .
My phosphates are pretty high! My coral loves dirty water!

I am starting to admire them more than i used to. Softies and LPS because they get so fluffed up. Have you felt them when they are fluffy , haha i had to move it one time and they feel like jell-0

that one isn't mine, I try to feed it but the food won't stop flying away! Even with the flow off!
