I am a little worried my bra has find a spot it likes, but it is in a cave of sorts, and I was hoping it would be in a more prominent position. I don’t really want to do anything to make it move, but I want it to be getting what it needs. I am hoping my flow out of this spot is not too much, and or it is getting enough light where it is. It seems to pull into the rocks when lights go out, but come back to here when lights are on. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Unfortunately BTAs like caves, so it will probably stay there, or find a different cave if it moves. But, it will move on it's own if it's not happy, so I wouldn't worry too much about the health. Retracting at night is completely normal, they open up more when the lights are on for photosynthesis.

That’s a little disappointing, but if it’s happy that’s cool. Thanks.
