Added Flow; brain inflating good or bad?

I just increased the flow in my 55 by adding a maxi-jet mod to my MJ 600. I don't know if i'm getting the advertised 1600 gph, but things are sure rockin and rollin in there now. My green open brain is obviously reacting to the change but i don't know if it is good or bad. It has inflated to 2X normal size (when lights off) and fully extended its' tentacles. The top of the coral appears to blowing in the breeze.
Does it approve of the new flow or should i reposition it?

generally if they don't like the flow they won't open all the way and will kinda get flattened by the current. It sounds like yours likes it..

the extra flow has probably disturbed detritis and other nutrients that had settled. the brain is feeding on the stuff that is now in the water column.
