Droppy leather

recently, the last two days, my finger leather coral has been looking droppy, and i don't know why. My Bubble has been doing great and has grown about 25% since i bought it in the middle of march. What could be wrong? All the other soft corals in my tank, star polyps and mushrooms, have been doing great, what is wrong?

Try different things. Put it higher or lower in your tank (to adjust light). Try giving it more or less flow. Try a coral dip. Alot of people say leather corals are the easiest to keep, but I have a yellow leather that is very touchy. It has to have the perfect ammount of flow and light. HTH

Thanks for the sugg. This weird thing is, it has been in the same spot, with no problems, for about three months. It has even grown since then.

Does he have a Shiny look to him? If so, he is probably molting. They do that on occasion to clean themselves. Mine does it all the time.
